Chuck - Sheesh .... send them here until yours gets growing good! LOL! I've had the same problem with milkweed in the past. Poor plants just barely get going and the butterflies come along and lay eggs. The cats eat them to the nubs! Do what I did ..... I planted a total of 12, yes 12 passion vines in my backyard! LOL! They've yet to eat all of them to the ground!

Well, here is the pile after I whacked away at 2 of the vines. Wish they would last long enough for me to send them to you, Chuck! :-) It filled up a contractor trash bag and weighed a LOT!!! It took me over an hour to prune these 2 vines back. It was a tangled mess on the fence and trellis!!!!
