Passion flower: For grief and sorrow
Most passion flower species originate from South and Central America. Christian immigrants recognized the symbolism of Jesus' crucifixion in the flower of the plant. The ten petals symbolize the ten apostles without Judas and Peter, the secondary crown the crown of thorns and the five stamens the five wounds of Christ. The plant thus came to symbolize the suffering of the world and was therefore used for nervous and psychological problems associated with suffering and grief.
