Passiflora ciliata Aiton
FRINGED PASSIONFLOWER
**
Florida material was formerly called Passiflora foetida, which is now partly characterized by its green fruits, and is apparently not naturalized in Florida. According to Vanderplank (Curtis's Bot. Mag. 30: 352-353. 2013) our plants (which have red fruits) are Passiflora ciliata. Meerman (in Ulmer & MacDougal 2004) preferred to treat this taxon as a variety of P. foetida. Further, Florida material might now be referable to P. lanuginosa (Svoboda 2023).
