By invasive, I mean that the vines shoot out in all directions, hook on to things, and climb and cover anything and everything in its way. I think all passifloras have the tendrils which hook, circle, and climb so, yes, self-climbing. Furthermore, it will send out runners underground and spontaneous vines will pop up everywhere in the garden. No doubt it has escaped cultivation in Florida and become wild, as Chantell said, and is probably on the invasive species lists of Florida and Hawaii. Some passiflora hybrids are more well-behaved. I used to have about a dozen passifloras, most of them grown in containers, but I have since rid myself of them due to space limitations. I don't know anything about snail vines so I can't compare them to Passifloras. This is 'Belotti' below.
