| Hi, I'm looking for a nursery that sells passion vines in the Destin, Ft. Walton Beach area. Please email me directly if you know of one.
Thanks

Don't know about nurseries, but I have both Maypop(incarnata) and 'Incense' here in FWB. They are extremely invasive though lovely. They also get scrammed by the Gulf Fitillary catterpillar most yrs but not this one. If you want cuttings, just drop me a note at pduffy7@cox.net and I'll tell you how to get over to pick up as much as you want!
Cheers,

| I have a few wild ones in my yard. I also have not seen any caterpillars this year. |

| I have incarnata here in Crestview, too. Fantastic plant for the Gulf Fitillary. BTW, it's too early for the caterpillars. They'll be here in a couple of weeks. |

| Don't forget to head to the butterfly house at the foot of the bridge heading to the beach in Navarre this weekend . Last time I went there they had some vines growing wild in the ditches. Also , Garden Gate on hwy.98 in Gulf Breeze rules. They have every imaginable butterfly plant for sale. |

| I second the garden gate in gulf breeze.. they def. have passion. I also live in fwb and have some passion in my yard and my brother in laws yard. Email me if you want to pick some up.. more than happy to share. Beware.. they can go pretty nuts in the yard, popping up all over the place. ::chris |
