Corkystem Passionflower
Scientific name: Passiflora suberosa
Corkystem passionflower is a perennial that can climb or be used as a groundcover. It likes full to partial sun and somewhat moist soil to soil that has somewhat long very dry periods. While not native to Alachua County, it is native to many parts of Central and South Florida, and some coastal counties to the east and west of us. It is a larval host for gulf fritillary, Julia heliconian, and zebra heliconian butterflies. Purportedly, the leaves are smokable and the fruit is edible, and the members of this genus can be used as a sedative.
Size: assorted small pots
