Passiflora Incense -- 3 plants via ebay
Passiflora Incense is supposedly one of the fragrant Passiflora varieties. I'm a sucker for fragrant plants, so I searched around for a cheap local supplier. No such luck. Instead, I turned to Ebay.

Passiflora Incense starts: all 3, 1 day after getting them in the email.
Here are 3 passiflora I got in a Dutch auction on Ebay. It was $3.50 + $6.00 S&H total for the 3 plants. Two other people in my lab group (R & M) will be raising plants along with me.
The plant I picked out came with a smooshed purple flower. Very sad, but as soon as I repot all the plants hopefully the growth will pick up again.

Here's M's plant. It is slightly shorter than the other 2 plants, but its leaves are healthier than mine. Growth along its tip has also rapidly developed since the plant was freed from its packaging.

Lastly here is R's plant. Its leaves are very healthy too, but I'm worried since the soil it came packed with seems to have overturned a bit during shipping and I see a few roots showing.

I'll be less anxious once L and I repot the Passiflora Incense on Saturday after a trip to the local Home Depot for gardening supplies.
