Texas Gardening: Glad I did not yank out this vine, 1 by Sheila_FW

The passifloras are host plants for the Gulf Fritillary butterflies. The caterpillars will eat the plant down to the ground. So if you are looking to have a beautiful full vine year round, I would not suggest those. I grow the plants (full sun) only for the butterflies to lay their eggs on and then let the caterpillars eat it.
I have had good luck with a Confederate Star Jasmine on a brick wall in full sun before. Some years when we have super bad winters it will freeze back but has put out again. I tried to move it one year and it froze out, two others in the back on a trellis is still going strong.
