Don't Forget To Add These for Your Plants:

Passion Flower is a vigorous climbing vine with large lobed foliage that is semi-evergreen in warmer climates.  The unusual purple and white flowers are white with disk of filaments and tentacle-like projections bloom from late spring to mid summer.  Following the flowers are egg-sized fruits that make a popping sound when stepped on.  Grows best with support in full sun and well-drained soils.  Humidity tolerant but very flammable.

Passiflora incarnata is a host for several species: Gulf Fritillary, Variegated Fritillary, and Zebra Heliconian.  The flowers attract many pollinators and the fruits bring in songbirds and small mammals.  Learn more about planting for butterflies with Georgia natives with this brochure.
