Re: passion flower / fruit
My Maypop (P. incarnata) did nothing the first year, some leaves and maybe 6 ft. of vine. Last year it showered us with flowers and even a few fruit, but they didn't ripen. (P. caerulea has died twice). Be careful what you wish for, my maypop now has taken over about 8 ft of fence and even grows in the lawn!

"If by a liberal, they mean someone who looks ahead and not behind; someone who welcomes new ideas without rigid reactions; someone who cares about the welfare of the people, their health, their housing, their schools, their jobs, their civil rights, their civil liberties; someone who believes we can break through the stalemate and suspicion that grips us; that is what they meant by a liberal, I am proud to be a liberal."
