• Passion Flower

     

    My dad discovered this passion flower vine growing behind a parking lot of an ice cream shop in Williamsburg, Virginia. Fortunately, I was along and had my camera with me!

    The Passiflora, or passion flower was first discovered in the New World in the 17th century and was presented to the Old World by Jesuit missionary priests. Legend says that the night after one priest saw a passion flower he had a vision likening its floral parts to elements of the Crucifixion or Passion of Christ: The five petals and five sepals became the ten apostles (omitting Peter and Judas). The three pistils became the nails of the cross; the purple corona (or filaments) was the crown of thorns, and the stemmed ovary was the Lord's goblet.

    Today, there are more than 400 species of the passion flower found throughout the world.
