Passionflower (Fata Confetto)
$29.99
Fata Confetto is an Italian passionflower hybrid bred by Maurizio Vecchia and named for the Sugar Plum Fairy of Tchaikovsky’s Nutcracker: warm purple and white flowers with long striped filaments and dramatically twisted edges, roughly 4 inches across, borne from late spring through mid-fall on a modest-sized vine. Its Passiflora incarnata parentage gives it real cold-hardiness for a passionflower, extending its useful range further north than most cultivars in the genus can reach.

I have been buying from your nursery for years, and hands down your citrus has survived the best out of all of my sources. I have never lost a plant in my colder climate.
The packaging for those kiwis was brilliant and by far the best packaging job out of any place I ordered from this year. Your Annas are tough as nails.
An extra long box for taller trees is totally worth it to me. The trees are great.
