Still Glowing

This vine is going nuts and I couldn't be more excited.
It's the 'Ruby Glow' Passion Vine and I am in love.  I kept waiting to see what it was going to do, waiting to see patiently and then almost as soon as I forgot to go check it, Alfonso came over and asked me if I'd seen "La nueva" (the new one).  And there she was.... beautiful as ever.  I took this photo pretty early on in the morning and as the day progressed she got prettier if that is possible.
I took this picture a little later on- not sure if you can tell the difference but it was more vibrant and larger and opened up a little bit. We have this planted on the fence and I have enjoyed the large green leaves and watched it grow but was waiting and waiting for the blooms and finally!!  They are so pretty.  Well worth the wait!

  2. I love passionflower, and this one is just gorgeous! I think I need to find a place for it in my garden! Just found your site--look forward to many return visits!
