Passion FlowerPassiflora (pass-iff-FLOR-uh)
We didn’t grow any Passion Flower this year as the vines weren’t available in the spring and I have pretty much given up on keeping them in the greenhouse over the winter. So I was a little jealous when I came across this red beauty in a friend’s garden. These flowers lend such an exotic and tropical touch to our gardens up north that they are always nice to have. There is quite a bit of symbolism in the flower and the flowers are used medicinally.

The red passion flower is very attractive. Many gardens in my neighbourhood have it. It does not have the perfume of the purple passion flower.
The flower looks very gorgeous! I'm also jealous that your friend have that. I wish I could grow such beautiful flowering plants on my garden.
thanks to you both. I never knew the blue one had a fragrance.
Waa the flower of this passiflora is really great.. i loved it!
Wow, a very beautiful range of flowers, I like especially the 3rd and 4th pictures-Tropical Hibiscus, these shots make it look like a small planet with something in the middle, I like it the most!
