It is a host plant for the caterpillar of the Gulf Fritillary butterfly and the Zebra Longwing butterfly - so you may see some chrysalis nearby. <br />I wonder if the fruit of this species is as tasty as the purple passion fruit in Australia.

We used the space under it to store the lawn mower, wheelbarrow and such. To hide the equipment we put lattice around the perimeter creating a door with one piece of it. Then we planted purple passion vine. It grew wonderfully, covering that lattice and screening the storage area. It was gorgeous. Our flowers were deep purple. I loved it and wish we could grow it at this house, but we don't have enough sun. Even there we never saw fruit on it.Peghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03309987428045299558noreply@blogger.com
