Passion Flower

 

 

The Passion Flower was given its name by Christian Missionaries.  In the pointed leaves they saw the spear, in the wisps they saw the whips, and in the column of the ovary they saw the cross.  In the dark ring within they saw the crown of thorns, and its' three day life span is a reminder of the the Lord's resurrection.
