"Maypop is undoubtedly the showiest of the native Passiflora species. It is an evergreen, flowering vine that climbs by tendrils. Its height and spread varies depending on the structure it climbs on. The flower is a spectacular pink and purple and generally reaches a width of 3 to 5 inches. Each unique flower lasts about one day, appearing in the summer and early fall. The flowers fill the plant, making maypop a fine flowering plant for most of Florida. The leaves have three lobes and smooth margins. Ovoid, green fruits are abundantly produced and can be found on the vine along with the flowers. Fruits are light weight and the flesh is spongy and white. They are attractive and edible (but not very tasty) and attain a diameter of 2 aA to 3 inches. Uses: Passionflower is used internally to treat nervous restlessness, sleep disorders, anxiety, neuralgia, irritability and overcoming the difficulty in falling asleep. The ripe passion fruits are eaten raw and can be made into jellies, jams, wines and fruit based drinks, while the flowers are made into syrup. Its narcotic properties cause it to be used in diarrhea and dysentery, neuralgia, sleeplessness and dysmenorrhea."

The genus Passiflora contains over 400 species with considerable variety within them and the common name Passion Flower can be confusing. Some passion flowers are vines, but some are bushes and even trees. Some are annuals and some others are perennials, and evergreen and deciduous. Some produce edible fruits. What they share are exotic, fascinating flowers that remain open for only a few days. They have a wide, flat petal base with several rings of filaments in the centers which surround a stalk that holds up the ovary and stamens. Colors include blue, purple, white, pink, red and yellow. Most commonly grown forms are vines that climb and cling by tendrils.
