Passionflower (Passiflora incarnata)
Passionflower is a delicate climbing plant with striking flowers that seem almost otherworldly. Its softly lobed green leaves frame white and purple blooms with an unusual, star-like form.
It belongs to the passionflower family (Passifloraceae).
In herbal practice, we mainly use the above-ground parts of the plant, especially its leaves and flowers (folium et flos).
The name passionflower comes from the symbolism once associated with its flower, whose features were interpreted as images of the Passion of Christ. The plant is native to the Americas and is now grown in other parts of the world for both its beauty and its place in herbal traditions.
Passionflower has a long history of use during times of inner tension and evening restlessness, when we long to unwind and ease into rest. It often finds a place in evening rituals, or on days when the mind feels full and the body asks for a gentler rhythm.
In modern herbal practice, passionflower is valued for its traditional association with relaxation, calm and sleep. It is especially popular in evening preparations, where its gentle yet distinctive character can be appreciated.

Is passionflower similar to valerian?
Passionflower and valerian are often used for similar reasons, but they have different characters. Passionflower is generally considered gentler and is often chosen during periods of inner tension or evening restlessness. Valerian is commonly chosen when someone is looking for a more pronounced sense of calm.
In herbal practice, passionflower is often included in a longer, gentler routine, while valerian may be chosen when more noticeable support is desired. The two herbs are also sometimes used together, especially in the evening.
Can ornamental passionflowers be used in the same way?
Passionflowers grown as ornamental plants are often different species from *Passiflora incarnata*, the species used in this herbal preparation. Ornamental plants may include *Passiflora caerulea* and other tropical species.
Although they may look alike, these species differ in their composition and history of use. You should therefore not assume that an ornamental passionflower can be used in the same way as *Passiflora incarnata*.
