Purple Passion Flower dying?

| Help. I cant keep a houseplant to save my life. I bought a little passion plant early spring. Potted it and was outside all summer. It took off very nicely. Never did bloom. So I brought it inside, hoping to keep it going and maybe seem some blooms someday.
It is in bright indirect light. Room is about 68-70 degrees. I ocassionally run a humidifier in there. I let it dry out completely when I brought it in. It started losing a lot of leaves and seemed to be getting crunchy. So - I gave it a good watering a few days ago. Now it is all droopy. The tendrils were perky and reaching for the blinds...now they are all floppy.
I really hope it lives and now confused about when to water it again. |

| hello! i currently have a passion flower vine growning indoors. i bought two plants in late spring. and put them outside in almost full sun. they liked to stay moist but not sopping wet. indoors it seems to dry out quickly so im watering it almost every other day. I have lost some leaves, and due to me being in Upper Michigan the sun just isnt the same so the leaves are lighter green, but it is alive. give it as MUCH light as you can! and soon you'll figure out a watering schedule that will work with your plant. :) goodluck! |
