#upclose after it’s alien 👽 looking flower is finished it’s dandelion like seeds emerge #bestofjuly

#weirdness #interestingfoliage #velvety #fragrant

I do like something different in the garden Eileen @emch Not a lot of room in this small place so if it’s not interesting, of use or beautiful. It doesn’t come in here.

The flower of the purple passion plant. #upclose and amazing #stinky #beautiful #bestofjuly

Nice pic and cool little stinker😊

Yeah @cowdenkyle they’re definitely a stinky when the first open , thank you 😊

Growing fast and covered with smelly flowers. Smells like BO

I wonder why there not opening all the way. There truly amazing fully open. #stinky #upclose

She’s opening her smelly flowers, not exactly a flower you want to get up close to sniff. Many more will open soon, then you don’t even need to get close to smell them

Ah, everyone loves a #fragrant flower

This one will make your eyes 👀 water and the smell will stick with you a bit

The flower of the purple passion plant, sure is a smelly

Well Eileen @emch it looks like she’s producing a stinky but beautiful flower. Looks like you’re going to get to see one sooner than I thought. This one is off the ground so my dog won’t kill it.

Get out the nose plugs David. Can’t wait to see this odiferous beauty 💜💜

Pretty #purple #interestingfoliage fun plant to have in a collection

I had a friend who had this grow all across her kitchen. 😂🌞

My niece has one growing all around her kitchen window. This one is my second try. The first one produced stinky flowers and crooked shortly after that @sunlovin

The #newgrowth of a purple passion plant at incredibly a bright fuzzy purple 🥰

#velvety

So hard not to rub these pretty fuzzies!

Looks electric #foliagefriday

This is a stunner, what a rich looking plant!

I like it a lot too @pooh4jvn

I love fuzzy plants but this one is pretty special don’t you think

Beautiful plant! 🥰, but the flowers 🤢🤮 They smell so bad

I’ve had the flower before @treefrog44 and it smells like something died. Most gardeners remove them before they open. The flower is truly amazing to look at though

Love the dark purple 💜💜

Gorgeous! It looks like it would glow in the dark.

💜💜

Finally got another one in great shape. This time I know what it likes this time

Wow, this is really neat!

Wow, it's shining 🌟

Looks like velvet 💜 love the purple

These were in the gc at the weekend I was fascinated with them....💜🪴💜
