Comments (5)Poisondart - the tropical pipevine, A. elegans, is poisonous for Gulf Frits. Gold Rims can be raised on it, but I don't think they make it up as far as Kentucky. If you're planning on using it for a host plant for the GFs, it won't work for them. The caterpillars will die on it. Pipevines that will work in your area are the ones that are not considered tropical, like A. serpentaria, A. tomentosa, A. macrophylla, and A. clematitis.

Comments (35)Dear Mechelle - I live in the Tidewater area of Eastern Virginia out near Williamsburg, and am desperately trying to farm Aritolochias to raise PVS cats also, as are many other people. If you have any fimbriata seeds still available at this late date, I would love to have a few and give them a try. I'm afraid I don't know much about raising the very small serpentaria roots that I recently purchased. But they are potted up and show signs of growth, even in now in August. The seller said that they wouldn't grow until next Spring, which kinda surprised me! So I've been online reading on the Forum here and I've learned that having "back-up" forage plants is a must when one has a female PVS visitor, which I plan for next Spring. Can you help? Do you have suggestions for keeping serpentaria "vines" alive until next Spring in zone 7? I could even send you an SASE to make it easy (if you have any fimbriata seeds still available)! Thanks!...See MoreStill Have Aristolochia Fimbriata Seeds for SASE
