This is a "botanical sample" and has not been germination tested. See note below. 

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.

Really good spf
Size: 2.5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I’ve been using this for a little while now and I actually really like it. It feels nice on the skin, doesn’t feel heavy, and leaves my face looking fresh and smooth. I also noticed my skin feels softer after using it consistently. Definitely something I would buy again.

Pretty lightweight
Size: 2.5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Although it still leaves a little bit of a shine ( more of a dewy look), there is definitely not that much of a greasy feel which really helps me to keep being consistent with using sunscreen because my big issue with using other sunscreens is that they're too greasy feeling and not lightweight and leave too much of a shine on my already oily face.

Not for sensitive skin
Size: 2.5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I have combination skin, prone to acne, and sensitive skin. Even though this is labeled as non-comedogenic and best suited for oily skin, I still experienced acne because the consistency of the sunscreen is really thick. It makes it hard to blend (really hard) and upsets my skin. It also smells a lot like alcohol, more so than most sunscreens, even those from this brand. I bet it's good for some skins but it simply wasn't for me.

Finally!
Size: 2.5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I have been looking for a sunscreen that does not breaks me out or irritate my eyes and this was perfect. I wash my face in the morning and I put this sunscreen on. I don't need to use moisturizer since this is enough. It does leave my skin glowy which I like but not greasy. I notice even my dark spots are fading but because I do use this everyday. My skin is tan and it does not leave a white cast. I love it. If you have acne prone skin, oily and sensitive give this a try.
