Maypop is a rapidly growing climber with the ability to reach heights of 6-8 feet (1.8-2.4 meters) through supportive structures via tendrils situated at leaf axils. This perennial is characterized by dark green, three-lobed leaves and intricately structured flowers featuring a unique arrangement of radial filaments. The blooms, present from mid-summer to fall, have petals and sepals that subtend a fringe-like corona. The vibrant sepals and petals usually display a shade of lavender or purple, while the corona typically showcases a striking purple and white banding.
