Hi: My passion flower is in ground since 14 months ago. During winter lost the leaves, but they are back. It has the flowers but I have never seen a fruit. Can you let me know if I need to add something to care it. Thanks, Lenny McDonald

It sounds like it has trouble pollinating. The pollen on this plant is rather heavy and if you do not get many pollinators, you may want to hand pollinate the flowers. This article has direction on how to do this:
