Passiflora 'Lavender Lady' * Passion Vine

I have found Passiflora lavender lady to be one of the tamer passion vines.   That is not to say that it can't leap small trees, hen houses and more in a single season.  Just that it is a tad slower than its cousins.  The flowers are exotic beyond belief, far too much fun for a garden to be without.  They are tender in the high twenties.  I only plant Passiflora lavender lady in a frost free location.  Passion vines have interesting methods of spreading pollen.  And intriguing egg mimic appendages to fool butterflies that wish to deposit their eggs.
