Years ago, while landscaping, my wife brought home some passion flower vines she had cleaned out of someone’s flowerbed. We put it in a pot next to our patio and now it covers four trellises, making a small living privacy fence for us.
The best part about our vine is watching its life cycle and the cycle of life of a particular critter it supports.
