pasiflora atropurpurea

[jamie]

does anyone know anything about this passiflora? I have grown it for a while now and its taking over a corner of my house..nearly ready to go back outside into the ground again. It's not so cold tolerant like my caerulea..

I cant find a thing about this plants alkaloid profile though..and nothing comes up in the search here so I assume nen has not convered it yet? Nen do you have any info at all on this species? Anyone?

I will add a photo later of the plant just for the hell of it.

..jamie, P. atropurpurea is an unresolved name in botany..it has been in horticulture a long time and is probably a variety of or hybrid with P. incarnata..so, quite high chance of harmalas, but no specific chemical info per se..

ahh okay thanks nen!

Guess some testing is in order this summer.
