PASSIFLORA INCARNATA
PASSIONFLOWER OR MAYPOP
One of the hardiest species of passionflower, it's a fast-growing perennial vine with climbing or trailing stems, and beautiful flowers.
Edible fruits grow about size of eggs; green at first but turning orange as it matures. Also food for a number of butterfly caterpillars.
Easily cultivated. I've noticed sometimes in the wild they seem to attract a variety of unusual looking orange and black colored bugs.
Many medicinal qualities. Native to Southeast United States. They grow in full sun or part shade, and have a high drought tolerance.
