~ Passion Flower ~

Passiflora, known also as passion flowers or passion vines, is a genus of about 550 species of flowering plants, the type genus of the family Passifloraceae.

 

They are mostly tendril-bearing vines, with some being shrubs or trees. They can be woody or herbaceous. Passion flowers produce regular and usually showy flowers with a distinctive corona. There can be as many as eight coronal series, as in the case of P. xiikzodz. The flower is pentamerous and ripens into an indehiscent fruit with numerous seeds.
