I have been growing this passionvine successfully in my backyard garden in Riverview, FL- zone 9b- for several years now.
Pollinators: It is NOT a host plant to the larval stages of butterflies, however pollinators do enjoy the nectar from blooms and wildlife will eat the fruits. I have this vine growing on a trellis in full sun intermixed with Dutchman Pipevine Trilobata. The Pineland Passionvine helps to shield the large Polydamus (Goldrim Swallowtail) caterpillars as they clear the leaves of the pipevine and expose themselves to predators.
Fruit: It bears small fruits that are edible but not particularly useful or tasty to humans. The blooms are quickly pollinated and develop into small green/yellow fruits that wildlife enjoy.
Growth: Grows well in full sun or shade. Blooms best in sun. In fall, the leaves will turn yellow and the plant will look unsightly. I cut the plant down each winter, and it grows back vigorously each spring. Small white blooms appear along new growth only and last one day. It is a vigorous grower and will quickly grasp onto nearby fences, AC unit, other plants etc. Don’t plant it next to anything you don’t want it to reach out and grab onto.
Propagation: I have successfully grown the plant from cuttings and seed.
Status: The species is considered endangered. It is Native to South Florida.
