White Maypop
The Maypop is a perennial vine with three lobed leaves and very showy intricate blue flowers about three inches across. It climbs by tendrils or sprawls on the ground. Not uncommon in fields and woods edges of the southern United States. Lime-sized fruit becomes leathery and yellowish with tasty pulp around small seeds. A treat for southern farm boys. Plant in sandy soil in sunny location with fence or trellis to climb. This Woodlanders introduction is a rare pure white-flowered selection shared with us many years ago by our friend Gene Cline a Georgia native plant pioneer and expert.
