PASSIFLORA CAERULEA ‘Charlotte Corday’
FAMILY :: PASSIFLORACEAE
WHITE PASSION FLOWER: 4″ white (with a slight pink blush to the corona) flower and five lobed dark green leaves identical to the previous listing except for the flower color. This may be the old-time variety “Constance Elliot.” I selected it from a hedgerow of white flowered P. caerulea grown from seed. I liked the pink blush. Taxonomists can dispute the name; I don’t care. “Charlotte Corday” is a character in a favorite play of mine by Peter Weiss, Marat Sade.
