P. exoniensis is one of the most spectacular passionflower hybrids
P. parritae is considered by many to be the most beautiful passionflower, plus it's one of the rarest
I have a P. exoniensis x parritae plant that grows like a weed and is pretty easy to root. I also have a P. exoniensis plant in bloom. I'd like to be able to pollinate the flowers of the P. exoniensis and get fruit. If the pollen is from an interesting enough plant I'd like to grow the seeds. I can provide either unrooted cuttings or an rooted cutting if one is willing to be patient.
Possible pollinators would be other Tacsonia passionflowers.
This is a pretty new hybrid and photos are hard to come by. I bought my plant earlier in the year, and bloom time is in the fall, so I haven't seen the flowers yet. I've been told they look like P. exoniensis, but bigger.
I'm sure anyone who would have Tacsonia pollen knows what flowers of each of the parents look like. For others who might be interested, here are some photos I found online--these are other people's photos:
