 58/ maypops Passiflora incarnata (native fruit vine)

Vines die back each year and grow again the next spring. I did a bad job this year of securing the vines on the trellis and they keep falling down in high winds so they aren’t entirely maintenance-free. They don’t get more water than nature but I do give a bit of compost in fall after they die back. Young leaves are “edible.”
