I don't have a before picture but this was a giant plant that took over this arch. I went to trim and and clean it up as no one had cleaned it in years and accidentally basically cut both branches of it basically at the trunk, before all the leaves. This is the after picture after I took all the stuff that was gonna die off. Is it over? Anything I can do? Any chance it'll sprout new growth? My wife loves this plan unfortunately

It’ll resprout don’t worry youd want to do hard chops on these anyways its a good reset and help keep them looking lush and blooming where you can see em.
passionflowers can handle really aggressive pruning and will grow back fast once it warms up. it might look bare for a bit but as long as the roots are healthy it should start pushing new growth pretty quickly. just keep it watered normally and give it good sun and it’ll fill back in
if you want, I made a free plant help page where you can drop pics and get more specific advice 🌱
no catch, just thought it might help
