I am unable to source a Passiflora coccinea (Scarlet Passionflower) plant. I live in the Redland Bay area of Brisbane (Cleveland) and would appreciate help in locating a plant.

Although this is getting weedy in FNQ and becoming less available commercially, it's still a common rootstock for more delicate cropping passionfruit varieties and it wouldn't be a surprise to find it in the climber section of a local Brisbane garden centre. Online, it's being offered at www.choiceplants.com.au. Seeds are available on ebay and it's meant to be easy to grow from seed or cutting.

When it's raining, get a digging fork and make holes in your lawn. This will allow the rain water to really get into the soil.
