I have no trellis so I bought a chain-link fence gate at my local hardware store. It is mounted to a privacy fence in my yard. I took two planters off of hangers and used the hangers to hold up the trellis gate. I then used large twist-ties to keep the door and hangers together. I have planted two growing passion flowers with 8"+ height in the ground, weaving them through several holes of the gate door. (This can be done with an existing chain link fence or other means of support.) As the flower stems grow, they can be "directed" by placing them in the direction you wish them to grow.

You an replant it as soon as the weather is warm enough. I would think it would do ok at about 65 to 70 degrees. They like a lot of sun and hot weather to really take off but would do ok at these temps.

Like everything about plants, there are so many variables (season, amt of light, feeding),but I would say for your tiny containers, plant no more than a month before the event. That will give the plants time to become established, but not enough to outgrow the container. Love the idea and so will your guests!

An update from you would be good. If you left them in the ground, you should be seeing flowers and foliage soon. I would think that you planted them too late to get flowers in that year, but hopefully they still would have lived.

Mine has lived his entire life at our home in the sun room. I repotted him into a larger container using miracle grow moisture soil. I keep him trimmed into a roundish shape. Feed him miracle grow plant food twice a year and use a paint brush to pollinate the flowers in order to get fruit. I water once a week or when it's still dry after I push my finger into the soil to the first knuckle. Mine does not tolerate over watering at all. Good luck!

when winter comes you are to cut it down to six ins. then put mulch around it. I have not planted it yet. I have been sick. So there for I still have it in the house. Its doing ok, but if you still have warme weather plant it.

I repotted my Pomegrante plant into a quart flower pot using some stones in the bottem of the pot,(you can use foam packaging peanuts)used regular potting soil, with a couple hands full of clay soil from my back yard, mixed in well with the potting soil , do not use potting soil that has fertilizer,that will kill it. after planting in pot,water it well, tap pot on work bench,floor, ground, what ever, than you may have to put in mall amount of soil, because of settlement, i cut small amount of straw around the plant,( which i cut with a sissor) to keep soil from dehydrating, which it will do fast indoors.i use a 100watt grow bulb in my lamp in my den during the cold winter, but it is now in my sun room, with two small Pomegrante, do not water it too often, that will kill it too, wait till the top of the soil dries out , which will cause the roots to grow down, seeking water. hope this helps ,

I didn't repot it yet. I will probably order a warm pot from the same place and repot it after it blooms.

You could, although, I would probably hesitate to do so as they appeared to be shocked from the handling when shipped. It took a bit of time before I replanted into a different pot. Another thing, the picture in this caption shows a lush, more adult version of what I received, which appeared to be more a of "new" plant and more on the fragile side. I hope this helped in some way.

you don't want to leave it in the box too long it is a live plant. Take it out and spray it or run under water! I love mine!

you will have to find a way to braid the new growth, the plant I had before did great I had for about 2 1/2 years and I did braid the new growth, the branches are soft enough but you just need to be careful (unfortunately it died on me while I was in the hospital in the summer) [friends didn't give it enough water] Second one I just purchased a few months ago died a few weeks after I received it, will buy another one from a local nursery after I start walking again...the lower braid will get taller and thicker, just watch the new growth, watch watering...go light in the winter but keep well watered in the summer, loves sun and warmth. Last thing, you may want to put it in a larger pot before summer so that the roots can take off like wildfire. best of luck with yours. RR

Love my banana tree!!! I would recommend waiting to plant until later this spring- maybe late April when warmer temps are more consistent. This is a very fast growing plant so you'll have a beautiful plant in no time! I'm in MO and I cover mine with a heavy layer of mulch & they weather the winter beautifully!

Beats me. I've got it in a wash tub. FYI, my experience with the seller and with the plants has not been what I hoped. Proceed with caution.

I'm still trying to figure out if its ever going to grow. I've had in the ground for months, it's only grown a few inches, and sprouted just a few new shoots. Its in ideal temperature and healthy soil.

I still have not repotted my sharry baby. I have placed it in a larger pot more for decoration. Orchids like their bottoms in tight places.

Not sure...second I believe. I bought a two year old plant. It's leafed out but no flowers yet.

I've had my plant for over a year now and it's gotten pretty big. I believe it came in a 3" pot and I recently transplanted it into a 6" pot; it's got lots of new growth and is doing great. Hope that helps!

That is precisely how I use it. I get approximately a month of use. Then I go to individual pots. Need to keep an eye on the roots towards the end. They will grow together making it harder to remove plants....fyi
