![]() Haha Tony! That Vitifolia can be a monster! We have to keep hacking it back as the vines grow over 60ft long, and end up all over the house next door. Pretty plant though and the hummingbirds love it.

![]() Thanks Sue. They really are. The maypop has about taken over one garden along my fence line, and we keep mowing the shoots that pop up all over the lawn. Be careful what you wish for. LOL

![]() It's a bit hard to understand, but I've got a friend in SoCal who is growing a P. incarta which came from Brazlian seeds but it's not cold hardy and he must grow it in his greenhouse. I've not tasted the fruit but he and others have said it's got a pineapple taste and he said it's known also as a pineapple passionfruit. I haven't done much searching yet, but haven't found anything on it.

![]() Sorry, it was late, I meant P. incarnata. But Maypop is always referred to as a hardy species whereas these Brazilian P. incarnata are not hardy. I'm going to try to get seeds or cuttings from my friend's plant later this year to try it myself.
