Native Plants of Florida By Lynn Davis How could I not start February off without talking about the Purple Passion Flower otherwise called maypop (for the sound it makes when stepped on). This beautiful woody climbing vine is a favorite of many pollinators. It grows rapidly, producing lavender blooms three to five inches wide. The blooms are showy from June through July. A small fruit grows on the spent blooms in summer through early fall. This plant will go dormant in winter. When growing Purple Passion Flowers, think natural. It’s a native plant needing little care. It does well in sandy/clay soil and prefers at least six hours of sunlight. The vine is also cold tolerant and does well in dry conditions. Why plant Purple Passion Flowers in your yard? This plant is notorious for hosting larva. It’s a favorite of the zebra longwing which happens to be the state butterfly. It’s also an attraction for hummingbirds. It will grow easily on a trellis or wall. Some people prefer growing it in containers. They like the flexibility of moving it to other areas. Just make sure to repot it every two years or so. Be cautious purchasing at Box Store nurseries. It might be the invasive variety Passiflora edulis. It’s always a good idea to head to a native nursery or one big on attracting pollinators for your garden purchase. NUISANCE PLANT ALERT: TORPEDOGRASS Torpedograss first appeared in the United States in the early 1800s. It was planted as a forage grass for cattle and livestock, but it quickly became out of control, spreading into waterways. Torpedograss is a type of invasive grass that grows quickly and widely in bodies of water. If not treated immediately, this grass can obstruct water flow and limit recreational use of lakes and ponds. Torpedograss can be difficult to eradicate. In order to keep Lake Ashton's waterways free of this invasive grass, Lake Ashton staff and our aquatics vendor conduct on-site tours of each pond and ensure there is a treatment plan in place.
