Passion Flower Plant Lore in C

Catholic lore of the Passion Flower, representing the Passion of Jesus Christ.

This app contains the lore of the Passion Flower or Passiflora (Maypops), described by Catholic theologians and Jesuit priests as a physical representation symbolizing the mysteries of the Passion of Jesus Christ. Native to the Western Hemisphere, the flower and its climbing vine thus became a key teaching tool for the conversion of Native American Indians to the Catholic Church during the Spanish colonial era. Delectable passionfruit and its seeds were sent back to Europe on cargo ships across the Atlantic, and the vine soon became one of the favorite flowers to be cultivated by the friars in the monastic gardens of Italy and Spain, even being praised by the Cardinal of Rome's physician for its medicinal properties.
