This is the second surprise I had recently.
My mom gave me some passion flower starts, and while they have been eagerly climbing my trellis, the two buds have been taking their sweet time in opening.
Here they are in the beginning, back in June, on the right hand side.
Climbing away. The ones on the left side were the only who produced buds, and there were only two.

It is my favorite variety of Passion flower, and probably the most well-known. I absolutely love the complexity of it.
I immediately started snapping pictures, trying to capture it from every angle, noting every detail and petal.
Here is what we have:
