This lovely passion flower was photographed at Butterfly World in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida. It is a Lady Margaret, burgundy red and its popular for attracting butterflies.
Passionflower (Passiflora incarnata) was used traditionally in the Americas and later in Europe as a calming herb for anxiety, insomnia, seizures, and hysteria.
