I have two live plants to barter. Passion flower vines are prolific growers and can be invasive. Here they are host plants for the Gulf Fritillary Butterfly. So mine don't really get out of hand.


Would love to hear what you have to barter. Some of my favorite things are handmade soaps, honey bee anything items, and things that homemade.

I will have to look them up and see if they would even survive our cold winters.

Yes they do fine in cooler temps. Plants die back each fall and return in the spring vigorously.

Might be better to plant in a pot, and moved to greenhouse in winter. We get only as low as 14 degrees here and they do fine but mine are heavily mulched. Pots are better if you don't want it to self seed as readily also.

Also when mine die back with first cold snap, I just cut off plant at the ground. Mulch keeps it warm enough in winter.
