According to the US Department of Agriculture, which defines the boundaries of these hardiness zones, the entire state of Tennessee exists within the Hardiness Zone 6. The USDA plant profile for the passionflower also confirms that the flower is native to the state of Tennessee. Fun fact - passionflowers are actually the state wildflower of Tennessee!
