Passiflora incarnata
The Passion Flowers intricate structure is hard to describe but once see it's seldom forgotten. Trailing or climbing vine with tendrils.
Sunny fields & roadsides.
As with other passifloras, it is the larval food of a number of butterfly species, including the zebra longwings and Gulf fritillary. In many cases its fruit is very popular with wildlife.

Yes, it will leave with a back full of gold...lot's of pollen on those passifloras.
The Bumblebee is covered in pollen! Good picture!
I'm not sure why my siting appeared brown...hope it's working properly now!
