A curiosity:

Last winter 7 days with frost,even had the water in the garden hose frozen.Messed up a few banana plants but did not hurt the passiflora.I pollinated all alata and ruby glow by hand.Only the large carpenter bees are large enough to pollinate these large flowers and they like caerlea better. One ruby glow I have ,last year only 4 fruit,this year I handpollinated and have more than 60 fruit.
