====================================
It looks like a Passion Flower. They used to grow wild out by my mailbox
but were accidentally sprayed with RoundUp. Yours is a much darker color
then mine were.

There is a variety of passion flower that grows wild along the East
coast and the gulf fritillary lay eggs on it in Georgia. I raise them
in half barrels and train them to a trellis, but they seem to prefer
running wild through the lantana beds and across my walkways.

It is my most productive butterfly larvae plant. I usually have
loads of cats feasting away by this time, but they are late this year
and just beginning to lay eggs. I hope yours proves to be
interesting.

Hal
