Figuring out the right lot size without losing your mind

"Honestly, I underestimated how aggressively they grow—felt like I was trimming them every weekend at one point."

Did you find the passionfruit vines affected the overall feel of your outdoor space? I've seen pergolas with passionfruit, and while they're beautiful and lush, sometimes they can make a space feel a bit closed-in or overly shaded. I wonder if something less aggressive, like jasmine or clematis, might strike a better balance between shade and openness. Jasmine especially has that bonus of fragrance without being quite as demanding on the pruning front. But then again, maybe the fruit makes all that extra maintenance worth it for you? Curious if you'd choose passionfruit again or try something different next time around...
