Passionflower is an American plant that grows from Texas to Florida and up through the lower Midwest to Pennsylvania. The fruits may pop when stepped on, and so they are also called Maypop. The Cherokee in the Tennessee area call it Ocoee, and the Ocoee river valley is named in its honor. The vines, leaves, and flowers make good sleep and anti-anxiety medicine. These fruits are deliciously sweet and tart! I drive home from the farm and eat one or two slowly, carefully removing the pulp from around each little seed.

Passionflower was so named by Spanish missionaries as a teaching tool to explain the passion of Christ - with many of the flower parts representing elements of Jesus's last days and crucifixion (10 petals and sepals = 10 faithful apostles; 5 stamens = 5 wounds; 3 stigmas = 3 nails; corona = crown of thorns; etc).

Passionflower nectar is abundant at the center of the crimped, disc-like corona, so honeybees, carpenter bees, and fritillary butterflies squeeze under one of the five stamens, getting a good pollen rub-down on their way in. At the next flower, the pollen will be received as they brush past one of the three stigmas. Pollination!

Our original seeds came from plants that grow semi-wild (but started as one garden plant and was spread by animals), at the Deitrich's farm outside Elmer, NJ, where the Experimental Farm Network flagship farm is based. Nathan Kleinman of EFN brought us a few fruits in 2015. We planted their seeds and now we have a sprawling patch in a corner of our hoop house for medicine, pollinator support, sweet/sour snacking, and seed saving.

Also known as Maypop, Passion Flower, Passion Vine, Ocoee.

Days to maturity: perennial - flowers in second year

Seeds per pack: 20

Germination rate: Botanical Sample - this seed has not been germination tested this year. Each year, we send them to a Department of Agriculture lab, and they usually find their germination rate to be around 25%. We find that when we follow the methods below, they have a much better germination rate, approaching 100%. 

Planting / harvesting notes

Passionflower seeds are known to be difficult to germinate. Here are a few methods to try: Place seeds in a moist paper towel in the refrigerator for one month before planting into warm, well draining soil. Alternatively, try soaking in warm water for 2 days and then nicking slightly with a blade before planting. Germination can take at least one month. Another method is to plant the seeds in the fall and allow them to overwinter in freezing temperatures for germination in the spring. This is a spreading perennial, and if it likes where it has been planted, it could grow long roots underground, popping up in nearby beds in coming years. Choose its home wisely and you will be graced with bountiful vines, blooms, and fruits!

Seed keeping notes

Seeds are ripe when the fruits become soft and perhaps slightly yellowed. Either suck the pulp off the seeds, or ferment the pulp and seeds in water for a few days and decant the pulp off the seeds.

Pretty, comfortable bra; small issue with cup structure
Size: 44D, Color: Black, Size: 44D, Color: Black
This is the first underwire bra I’ve worn in about six years - I’ve been wearing sport bras, so I wasn’t sure I’d like it. This bra is pad free, lightweight, and made of very pretty lace. When I put it on, the underwire was not uncomfortable, and the bra itself fit relatively well. I was surprised that the band in the back was also comfortable, not digging into my skin. The bra is well-made with one exception. I think the top of the cup requires more structure. I feel that it’s a little too loose and the contents will fall out if I was to lean over too far or if I were to run or do anything slightly athletic. I like the bra - it’s comfortable and pretty but it has that one issue with the cup structure. I’ve decided that this would not be a good bra to wear all day, but because it is so pretty, I would wear it with evening wear only.

Seam shows right in the center of your brea$t!
Size: 38C, Color: Dark Pink
Had to return even though I loved the fit and feel of the bra. The seam that goes across the middle and your nippies shows through on every type of shirt I wear. And one side has a little extra room which made it ripple vertically I guess because the material/lace is so thin. Real bummer. Would be nice if B cup was available. C was just a little large.

This one is a keeper…
Size: 36D, Color: Nude
Bra shopping is truly one of my least favorite things to do, and it is always so frustrating to me. Online bra shopping tends to be even worse, so I had little hope for this bra but took a chance anyway. I was pleasantly surprised by how much I liked it! A true test for me is whether or not I notice I’m wearing it. I’ve worn it off and on for several days and I totally forget about it. Having nurses two babies and approaching my 40s, my girls need a lot of support and this bra delivered. I thankfully discovered years ago that if you have deflated mom boobs, an unlined cup is the best way to take what you have and give it shape. This one does just that. I have very mixed feelings on the lace though. On the one hand, it is sexy and feminine and I don’t find that in bras very much anymore (at least not ones that provide the kind of lift and support that I require). However, the lace is very noticeable through a shirt. I really can only wear this bra with a thick top or sweater. Otherwise, it’s just too noticeable and I’m not comfortable with that. Wearing a cami underneath a top helps slightly though. Overall, I’m glad I have this bra and I’ll be ordering another color. It feels well made, the material is nice, and it gives my bust a shapely (and youthful 😭) appearance. I wore it all day in 90+ heat at Magic Kingdom and it didn’t bother me at all, so it definitely qualifies as lightweight and comfortable in my book. I took a stab at a size and the 36D feels right. I *maybe* could have gotten a 34 but the 36 doesn’t feel loose on the tightest loops. On occasion, depending on the brand, I can be either a D or DD. I think this is worth trying and looks more expensive than it really is!
