EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning Passiflora, or Passion Flower, image brings us back in time to the 1690s when this exotic plant was first introduced from South America to Europe. Originally brought from Peru and Brazil, the Passion Flower was a source of great fascination and intrigue for European botanists and collectors. The Passion Flower, with its unique and intricately designed blooms, was believed to represent the Passion of Christ, with various parts of the flower symbolizing different aspects of the crucifixion. This belief added to its allure and desirability in Europe. The plant's tendrils, seen twining around the stem in this photograph, were a novelty in Europe at the time, and the Passion Flower quickly became a popular addition to European gardens. By the 1850s, the Passion Flower had spread throughout Europe and was being cultivated widely. This particular photograph, taken in the 1850s, showcases the beauty and elegance of the Passion Flower in all its glory. The large, vibrant flowers, adorned with their distinctive radial patterns and intricate filaments, are a feast for the eyes. The leaves, with their elegant shape and glossy green color, add to the overall allure of the plant. The Passion Flower's journey from South America to Europe marks an important chapter in the history of horticulture and botany. Its introduction brought new beauty and wonder to European gardens and added to the ongoing fascination with the natural world.
