can passiflora lady margret climb to 8ft if on trellis?

Brooklyn, NY

I have an 8ft trellis and hoping to grow a lady margret up it, though I am in NY, so I only have about 5 months till it will die from the cold. How high can i expect the lady margret to climb on the trellis.
does anyone have any pics of a lady margret in their garden?

This is a combination of citrina and Lady Margaret passifloras. While the citrina is hardier and grows faster, the Lady margaret has a prettier bloom , so they are combined. I have them growing on the side of my house on deer netting. Works great, invisible from a distance, and passies love to climb it. Between the two, they are working hard to cover the entire wall.

P.S. My citrina did not die back this winter but Lady died back part of the way.

Yes, LM can cover a 20' balcony in both directions if you let her! Mine died over the winter, but it had 60 blooms on it at one time, several times - an amazing vine!
