I consider the one of the standards. My grandmother had one and got me hooked on them.

Wonderful Passionflower

Passiflora mooreana has turned out to be one of my favorites. It offers beautiful flowers that have the scent of lilacs, and interesting blue-green foliage that's attractive even when it's not in bloom. It's free-flowering throughout the summer so you can enjoy lots of the beautiful fragrant blossoms in the warm months. Gulf Fritillary, Zebra Longwing, and Julia caterpillars never bothered it, so you can enjoy the flowers without having the vine eaten back. It grows well in a container, too, so you can enjoy it indoors as a high-light houseplant, or one you move in and out for the summer.
