Yes. DW grew up not-to-far-south of Chattanooga, just barely in the

That's my part of the country!

Just P. incarnata or a different one? The Maypop I saw in the park was
wild. I was just curious if anything other than P incarnata would
grow up here, or just that one species.

P. incarnata, or purple passionflower, or maypop. It is a state flower
of Tennessee. I would expect you to be able to find it at any garden
center there.

I have no idea if any South American tropical varieties will grow there
without extensive winter protection.
