plant a passion flower/fruit vine

I've done this the last few years and have absolutely love the fruit that bears in late summer. Last year was a bust as the vine hardly grew and the gulf fritters arrived and completely wiped it out. I've had it in the same spot and I think the nematodes ate up the root system. This year I'll plant in another spot too see if I have better results. These are just wild ones that grow along fence rows and shite.
