- Overview
Maypop, Passionflower or Passionvine is a vigorous, easy to grow vine that does well in Central Florida. It produces gorgeous blossoms and attracts Butterflies.
See also my Butterfly Garden Plant Diary for a graphic example of how much Butterflies love this plant (they stripped it bare). |

(4/3/2011) - To the right is passiflora sanguinolenta that I purchased form Annie's Annuals at the beginning of March. It has been slow to take off, probably because March was a cold and rainy month, not the tropical weather that Passion Flowers thrive in.
