HUGE passionfruit vine.. no flowers (Australia)?

I have a well growing, very foliage driven passionfruit vine that must mesure around 5-6 meters long and 2-3 meters high. Its growing on a trellis and its the only plant nearby.


Yet I have no flowers showing up, and haven't seen any in the 18 months its been established...


Any ideas how to trigger them..I want some fruit, to sit under the vine and eat all day ( i have no appendix... beofre you say it ! )

HUGE passionfruit vine.. no flowers (Australia)?
Passion-fruit usually takes about two or three years to set fruit. You may get an occasional fruit now, but next year you should have an abundance.


Be sure not to spray for flying insects as you do not want to kill the pollinators! :)


Do you fertilize and water it?


It sounds like it is getting to much nitrogen.


How is the pH?


Hope this helps!
