My neighbors call this flower “the last suffer,” and interestingly, its has many alternate names.
Other common names, sure, depend very much on areas or regions, just few of them are:
- apricot vine
- maracock,
- white sarsaparilla
- molly-pop
- old field apricot
- granadilla
Then, question: Why Passion Flowers could Attract Butterfly?
The simple answer that it is because the plants could provide “specific” foods and fragrance to attract butterfly
In addition to butterflies, other critters that love to visit exotic purple passion flowers are:
- many other pollinators.
Moreover, as reported by University of Florida (2012: Native Passionflower Vine Shares Special Relationship with Two Florida Butterfly Species) that at least two butterflies species depend on the flowers.
The butterfly are common, and easily observed in many places of the state of Florida, they are:
- the Gulf Fritillary
Have you seen purple passion flowers?
Do you love it?

Beijos. Votos de uma boa noite
Here, there are very similar ones that you published...
ReplyDeleteThey are also flowering now, but don't bear fruit!: ((
Maybe due to lack of pollinators...
Perhaps, is the fault of your hummingbirds!
Have nice days on the farewell to spring...
