We have planted a passion flower by our fence and it has 2 shoots one 6 feet and other 3 feet but would like more shoots, do we pinch out the growing tips?

That seems sensible but wait for others who actually know the answer to come along

You can cut them back quite hard to help them be a bit more bushy

The builders broke the main stem of my plant which was climbing over the back of the house and I thought I'd lost it.
It came up again from the root and after 2 years it's nearly back to where it was!!!
So you can be quite ruthless and cut back.......

Don`t get too fond of your passion flower, if we have more winters like the last two it will probably not survive.
Vietta`s plant up against a warm house wall was lucky.

Let it grow while it can !

I had 2 passion fowers, one over an archway and one against a trellis (both have been there for years).  they were HUGE and i thought i had lost both of them due to the harsh winter.

I cut both of them down to the main stem and hadnt got around to digging out the roots yet, however, last week i noticed that one of them is now growing again and no doubt will be taking over the trellis once again .

They seem to be pretty hardy, i would be tempted to experiment and give it a prune , although from experience, they tend to take over whatever you do
