passionfruit + frost?

[cushie]

the vine looses its passion when icey, oh well was worth a go

[Ruth OSullivan]

I was reading in a magazine recently about passionfruit vines, and the writer said hed seen one growing in Dunedin on a north facing brick wall, and my mother tells me that she had one growing in Renwick (near Blenheim) on an east facing wall of the house, so it must be possible to find the right spot for them? Im keen to try to get one growing in our frosty and foggy conditions.
