Maypop (Passiflora incarnata) is a cold hardy relative of the tropical
passionfruit (Passiflora edulis). I have seen maypop growing around
town, although it is not native here. Is anyone aware of any attempts
to crossbreed these two species? I found reference to Passiflora x.
colvilli which is supposedly a hybrid of maypop and a tropical
passionfruit, but I have been unable to dig up any sources for this
plant. On a related note, is there anyone that has access to both
species that would be interested in trying this cross?
