I slept in Perry, Ga. on a bicycle trip a few years ago. Bicycle Ride
Across Georgia. It's amazing that every state has a town or county named
Perry. I have pictures with me at most of them. "Perry in Perry, whatever
state!"

I have a good sized, healthy full Passion Flower. Lots of blooms. Then

the last month, I noticed that the Gulf Fritillary butterfly has taken up
residence. Lots of caterpillars. They have eaten back to stems about 20%
of the Passion Flower. I realize that the Gulf Fritillaries and the
Passion
Flower are a natural pairing, but will the caterpillars wind up killing
their own host plants?

Yes, sometimes they eat it to the ground. I lost mine a few years
back because it didn't have enough energy in the roots to come back
the following spring. I have two half barrel pots now and try to
save a few seed just in case, but haven't lost a plant since going to
the larger pots.
