Plant Id

15 years ago

I saw this Passiflora at the San Francisco Botanical Garden. All of them were labeled Passiflora species unfortunately and I haven't been able to Id it either. All of them were also growing at the base of trees and had zero buds or flowers on them. Just wondering if anyone has a clue as to what it is :) sorry about the blurry picture lol

Thanks

Maybe--and only just--trifasciata or an allied species? The leaf shape isn't exactly right, but it's close enough with passis' notorious shape changing ability. The varigrated patterns on the leaves are the main indicator. I'm pretty sure it's a decaloba type, though.
