Should I replant it into a new soil mixture and not keep it in the potting/peat mixture it came in? What type of soil does the PF Vine require? Does the Passion Flower vine need regular fertilizing or is a good organic mixture with yearly replenishment sufficient? Is the watering and sun requirements similiar to the Mandevilla Vine?

Since I haven't the faintest idea what to do, I will do it your way!! Sounds reasonable to me! LOL

Let me think... I will water root the cuttings upstairs to get more plants, (just in case), put the main plant at the mercy of my son in the basement, threaten not to feed him if he doesn't look after the plant, (that ought to do it), and hope for the best!

Thanks a whole bunch for the tips!!

Yep! I will probably need that "Good Luck" you sent me!

I kept in a bright window and watered enough, but not over watered (it's not actively growing in winter). Didn't fertilize until spring. In spring it started to resume growth and I put it back outside (after gradually getting it used to sunlight again, similar to how you do with annuals).

By the way, my passion vine hasn't bloomed at all this summer. I am wondering if it's due to the cool, cloudy, crummy summer, or if it's because I planted directly into the ground - maybe it's making roots at the expense of blossoms and likes to be root bound in order to bloom best?

Last year it bloomed quite a bit for a small vine, in fact that's the reason I bought it, it was already blooming at the garden centre.

Anyway, Thanks for the advice. I was going to just leave my plant outside to perish but you've convinced me to save for another year and give it another try. Maybe they perform better in pots than in the ground (alot of vines like to be slightly rootbound to bloom).

Enjoy the one nice day of the month!
