Hey Woody :)

I'm quoting you here: "Before I moved to NC I lived in WS for a very short period. For a month the night temp was -30F, warming up during the daytime to -10F; and I bet they don't have nice looking vines even in the summer time"

You might be surprised how well Passiflora do even in zones where they live 8-9 months inside (my winter temperatures can get to -52C).

I have 8 different varieties of Passiflora growing here and some of my vines are 4 times the size of the one posted below. Incense I noticed has buds forming this year.....it was just a 4inch start when I received a year and a couple of months ago.
