Help in identifying Passion Flower?

21 years ago

My daughter is convinced that a Passiflora species is growing rampant through the front border. Could anyone help her with i.d. please? Flowers with 5 petals, off-white striated lengthways with 5 green veins - flowers very small only 1cm across. Leaves 5 lobed, tendrils and stem typical Passiflora. Clusters of 5 small green fruits (about 8 mm dia)at each leaf joint. Vine about 6m long.

Thanks in advance

I have seen this plant in uk-just down the road in fact, it does look very Passiflora like but it is not. It made me look twice when I first saw it. The flowers & fruit clusters are not right. I don't know what it is though.

Thanks - you're right - it looks every bit a passiflora from the habit, leaves, tendrils, stem - it's just the flower that doesn't fit. Maybe someone will know.
