hello everyone... been a while since i asked you to be detectives for me.
here is another task... hopefully a simple one.
i planted three kinds of passiflora... i know one of them,... don't know the other two.
NUMBER 1:
light green leaves, not very dark in color, kinda soft to the touch and not shiny. the stem so far tends to get a little purple... same with the "ends" of the leaves near the main stem.
here are some pics:
NUMBER 2:
darker leaves, shiny, toothed.
pictures:
One of them is supposed to me banana passion vine - passiflora mollissima (hope i wrote that properly) and the other one... maybe a white variety of passiflora... or i don't know.

hi anna.... yes... that was my guess as well for the mollissima. No 2.
someone told me No 1. was actually papaya... and it makes sense... planted some a long time ago. And they don't develop into a vine. i looked for papaya and i got some very similar pics.
thanks anna
