<h2 class=""><strong>Butterfly Pea, Blue Pea Vine Seeds (Clitoria ternatea)</strong></h2> <h2><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>Price for Package of 5 seeds.</strong></span></h2> <p>Clitoria ternatea, commonly known as Asian pigeonwings, bluebellvine, blue pea, butterfly pea, cordofan pea and Darwin pea, is a plant species belonging to the Fabaceae family. The flowers of this vine have the shape of human female genitals, hence the Latin name of the genus "Clitoria", from "clitoris". (Synonyms: Clitoris principissae.)</p> <p>This plant is native to tropical equatorial Asia (Indonesia and Malaysia), but has been introduced to Africa, Australia and America.</p> <p>It is a perennial herbaceous plant, with elliptic, obtuse leaves. It grows as a vine or creeper, doing well in moist, neutral soil. The most striking feature about this plant is the color of its flowers, a vivid deep blue; solitary, with light yellow markings. They are about 4 cm (1.6 in) long by 3 cm (1.2 in) wide. Some varieties yield white flowers.</p> <p>The fruits are 5–7 cm (2.0–2.8 in) long, flat pods with six to ten seeds in each pod. They are edible when tender.</p> <p>It is grown as an ornamental plant and as a revegetation species (e.g., in coal mines in Australia), requiring little care when cultivated. As a legume, its roots form a symbiotic association with soil bacteria known as rhizobia, which transform atmospheric N2 into a plant-usable form, therefore, this plant is also used to improve soil quality through the decomposition of nitrogen rich plant material.</p> <h2><strong><em>Uses</em></strong></h2> <h2><strong>Food</strong></h2> <p>In Southeast Asia the flower is used as a natural food colouring. In Malay cooking, an aqueous extract is used to colour glutinous rice for kuih ketan (also known as pulut tai tai or pulut tekan in Peranakan/Nyonya cooking) and in nyonya chang. In Kelantan, east part of Malaysia, by adding a few buds of this flower in a pot while cooking white rice will add bluish tint on the rice which is served with other side dishes and such meal is called nasi kerabu. In Thailand, a syrupy blue drink is made called nam dok anchan (น้ำดอกอัญชัน), it is sometimes consumed with a drop of sweet lime juice to increase acidity and turn the juice into pink-purple. In Burmese and Thai cuisines, the flowers are also dipped in batter and fried. Butterfly pea flower tea is made from the ternatea flowers and dried lemongrass and changes color depending on what is added to the liquid, with lemon juice turning it purple.</p> <h2><strong>Traditional medicine</strong></h2> <p>In traditional Ayurvedic medicine, it is ascribed various qualities including memory enhancing, nootropic, antistress, anxiolytic, antidepressant, anticonvulsant, tranquilizing, and sedative properties. In traditional Chinese medicine, due to its appearance similar to the female reproductive organ, and consistent with the Western concept of the doctrine of signatures, the plant has been ascribed properties affecting this organ.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>Chemical constituents</strong></p> <p>Chemical compounds isolated from C. ternatea include various triterpenoids, flavonol glycosides, anthocyanins and steroids. Peptides known as cliotides have been isolated from the heat-stable fraction of C. ternatea extract.</p> <h2>Growing Requirements for Butterfly Peas</h2> <p>Unfortunately, Butterfly Pea plants are only hardy in USDA zones 10-11, but because they are such fast growers they are often grown as an annual plant in colder regions.</p> <p>Butterfly Peas prefer to be grown in full sun but they will tolerate light shade.</p> <p>These are very drought tolerant plants, but they should be watered regularly for the best results.</p> <p>Never over water Butterfly Peas!</p> <p>Pinch regularly to induce bushiness.</p> <p>Butterfly Pea seed pods are edible and tasty.</p> <h2>Growing Butterfly Pea Vines from Seed</h2> <p>The seeds of the Butterfly Pea should be nicked or filed, then soaked overnight in room temperature water before planting.</p> <p>They can be sown directly in the garden with 3-4 inch spacing when the soil warms in the spring.</p> <p>Start seeds indoors 12 weeks before the warm weather arrives, maintaining a temperature within the growing medium of 70°-75° F.</p> <p>Germination takes 15-20 days.</p> <table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="1"> <tbody> <tr> <td colspan="2" width="100%" valign="top"> <h2 align="center"><strong>Sowing Instructions</strong></h2> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p align="center"><strong>Propagation:</strong></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p align="center">Seeds</p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p align="center"><strong>Pretreat:</strong></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p align="center">Carefully scarify seeds with a knife, or roughen with sandpaper.</p> <p align="center">Then soak in warm water for 12 h.</p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p align="center"><strong>Stratification:</strong></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p align="center">0</p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p align="center"><strong>Sowing Time:</strong></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p align="center">all year round&nbsp;</p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p align="center"><strong>Sowing Depth:</strong></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p align="center">0,5 cm</p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p align="center"><strong>Sowing Mix:</strong></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p align="center">Coir or sowing mix + sand or perlite</p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p align="center"><strong>Germination temperature:</strong></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p align="center">25-28°C</p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p align="center"><strong>Location:</strong></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p align="center">bright + keep constantly moist, <strong>but not wet!</strong></p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p align="center"><strong>Germination Time:</strong></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p align="center">3-6 weeks</p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p align="center"><strong>Watering:</strong></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p align="center">in the growing season moderate water + let dry between watering</p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p align="center"><strong>&nbsp;</strong></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p><strong><em>Copyright © 2012 Seeds Gallery - Saatgut Galerie - Galerija semena.&nbsp;</em></strong></p> <p align="center"><strong><em>All Rights Reserved.</em></strong></p> </td> </tr> </tbody> </table> <p>&nbsp;</p> <script src="//cdn.public.n1ed.com/G3OMDFLT/widgets.js"></script>

<h2><strong>Banana Passionfruit Seeds - Curuba</strong></h2> <h2><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>Price for Package of 5 or 10 seeds.</strong></span></h2> <p>Banana passionfruit is the fruit of several plants in the genus Passiflora, and is therefore related to the passion fruit. They look somewhat like a straight, small banana with rounded ends. It was given this name in New Zealand, where passionfruit are also prevalent. In Hawaii, it is called banana poka. In its Latin American homeland, it is known as curuba, curuba de Castilla, or curuba sabanera blanca (Colombia); taxo, tacso, tagso, tauso (Ecuador); parcha, taxo (Venezuela), tumbo or curuba (Bolivia); tacso, tumbo, tumbo del norte, trompos, tintin or purpur (Peru).</p> <p><strong>There are several species of banana passion fruit, for example:</strong></p> <p>P. tripartita var. mollissima</p> <p>P. tarminiana</p> <p>Mollissima and its close relative Passiflora mixta are vines with cylindrical stems densely coated with yellow hairs, and are vigorous climbers, growing up to seven metres. The leaves are a shiny green with clearly defined veins, the flower is large, pink and green petalled with a yellow and white centre. The fruit is yellow-orange when ripe and contains a sweet edible orange-colored pulp with black seeds.</p> <p>The banana passionfruit is native to the Andean valleys from Venezuela to Bolivia. It was domesticated and cultivated since pre-Columbian times by various cultures of western South America before the Spanish Conquest and today it is commonly cultivated and its fruit are regularly sold in local markets. The vine is grown in California as an ornamental under the name "softleaf passionflower". It is grown to some extent in Hawaii and the State of Tamil Nadu, India.</p> <p>P. tripartita var. mollissima and P. tarminiana were until recently considered to be one species, P. mollissima.</p> <p><strong>Invasive species</strong></p> <p>P. tarminiana and P. tripartita thrive in the climate of New Zealand. They are invasive species since they can smother forest margins and forest regrowth. It is illegal to sell, cultivate and distribute the plants.</p> <p>Banana passionfruit vines are now smothering more than 200 square miles (520 km2) of native forest on the islands of Hawaii and Kauai. Seeds are spread by feral pigs, birds and humans. The vine can also be found all across the highlands of New Guinea.</p> <p>It is considered an environmental weed in South Eastern Australia (Victoria, Tasmania and New South Wales), but not declared or considered noxious by any Australian state government authorities.</p> <p>Banana passionfruit is used as rootstock for grafting the passionfruit varieties more commonly grown for food, especially in climates too cool for productive passionfruit growing. Regrowth from beneath the graft is one means of its outbreak as a weed, so growers should be vigilant for sprouting low on the main stem or from around the base of the plant, and should pull up and discard the plant when (typically after 6–9 years) the grafted passionfruit is no longer productive.</p> <h2><strong>Propagation:</strong></h2> <p>Soak the seeds in lukewarm water, 24-48 h.</p> <p>Always use sterilized planting soil. Moisten planting media. Place the seeds on the soil cover them 0,5 cm.</p> <p>Keep the soil moist, not wet. A bright, warm place, approx. 25 °C, for the seeds would be fine.</p> <p>Within 1-3 months the seeds will germinate, sometimes a bit longer.</p>

<h2 class=""><strong>Ivy Gourd, Scarlet Gourd Seeds (Coccinia grandis)</strong></h2> <h2><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>Price for Package of 5 seeds.</strong></span></h2> <p>Coccinia grandis, the ivy gourd, also known as scarlet gourd and Kowai, is a tropical vine. In Southeast Asia, it is grown for its edible young shoots and edible fruits.</p> <p>This plant is a perennial climber with single tendrils and glabrous leaves. The leaves have 5 lobes and are 6.5–8.5 cm long and 7–8 cm wide. Female and male flowers emerge at the axils on the petiole, and have 3 stamens.</p> <p><strong>Geographic spread</strong></p> <p>Its native range extends from Africa to Asia, including India, the Philippines, Cambodia, China, Indonesia, Malaysia, Myanmar, Thailand, Vietnam, eastern Papua New Guinea, and the Northern Territories, Australia. Its documented introduced range includes the Federated States of Micronesia, Fiji, Guam, Saipan, Hawaii, the Marshall Islands, Samoa, Tonga, and Vanuatu.</p> <p>Seeds or fragments of the vine can be relocated and lead to viable offspring. This can occur when humans transport organic debris or equipment containing C. grandis. Once the ivy gourd is established, it is presumably spread by birds, rats, and other mammals. In Hawaii, the fruit may be dispersed by pigs.[4] Long-distance dispersal is most commonly carried out by humans due to its culinary uses or by mistake. Regarded as very invasive and on the Hawaii State Noxious Weed List, ivy gourd can grow up to four inches per day. It grows in dense blankets, shading other plants from sunlight and highjacking nutrients, effectively killing vegetation underneath.[5] It was introduced to Hawaii as a backyard food crop. It is sometimes tolerated along garden fences and other outdoor features because of its attractive white flowers. It has escaped to become a vigorous pest in Hawaii, Florida, Australia, and Texas.</p> <p><strong>Weed control</strong></p> <p>Both physical and chemical recommendations are made for control of the ivy gourd. It is very difficult to control this plant physically except by bagging fruits. Hand-harvesting normally does not kill the plant, but rather breaks the vine blankets into smaller pieces and the plant is able to re-establish when it touches the ground. These methods can make the infestation worse and further the need for more rigorous control methods. Picking the fruit and placing them in plastic bags can help decrease the seed bank present with the soil. When using chemical controls, that ivy gourd responded well to a thin-lined bark application of 100% Garlon 4 (triclopyr), leaving plants in place so as not to translocate the herbicide or spread the pest.[4] It is applied multiple times until the vine dies. In Hawaii, several species of insect have been introduced with the purpose of being a biocontrol. Two weevils, Acythopeus burkhartorum and A. cocciniae, were introduced by the Department of Agriculture to Oahu and Hawaii. African vine moths were also released onto Oahu and Maui. On the island of Maui, the A. cocciniae apparently is established and damaging leaves. The larvae feed on the plant and the adults chew holes in the leaves. The moth has yet to appear successful in its purpose.</p> <p><strong>Medicinal value</strong></p> <p>In traditional medicine, fruits have been used to treat leprosy, fever, asthma, bronchitis, and jaundice. The fruit possesses mast cell-stabilizing, antianaphylactic, and antihistaminic potential. In Bangladesh, the roots are used to treat osteoarthritis and joint pain. A paste made of leaves is applied to the skin to treat scabies.</p> <p>Ivy gourd extracts and other forms of the plant can be purchased online and in health food stores. These products are claimed to help regulate blood sugar levels. Some research supports that compounds in the plant inhibit glucose-6-phosphatase.[9] Glucose-6-phosphatase is one of the key liver enzymes involved in regulating sugar metabolism. Therefore, ivy gourd is sometimes recommended for diabetic patients. Although these claims have not been supported, a fair amount of research on the medicinal properties of this plant are focusing on its use as an antioxidant, antihypoglycemic agent, immune system modulator, etc. Some countries in Asia, such as Thailand, prepare traditional tonic-like drinks for medicinal purposes.</p> <p><strong>Recipes</strong></p> <p>A variety of recipes from all over the world list rashmato, the fruit, as the main ingredient. They are best when cooked, and are often compared to bitter melon. The fruit is commonly eaten in Indian cuisine. People of Indonesia and other Southeast Asian countries also consume the fruit and leaves. In Thai cuisine, it is one of the ingredients of the very popular clear soup dish kaeng jued tum lueng [10] and some curries kaeng khae curry and kaeng lieng curry.[11] Cultivation of rashmati in home gardens has been encouraged in Thailand due to it being a good source of several micronutrients, including vitamins A and C.</p> <p>In India, it is eaten as a curry, by deep-frying it along with spices, stuffing it with masala and sauteing it, or boiling it first in a pressure cooker and then frying it. It is also used in sambar, a vegetable and lentil-based soup.</p> <p><strong>Nutrition</strong></p> <p>Ivy gourd is rich in beta-carotene.</p>

<h2><strong><em><span style="text-decoration:underline;">MAGNOLIA BERRY – FIVE FLAVOR BERRY Seeds (Schisandra chinensis)</span></em></strong></h2> <h3><span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>Price for Package of 5 seeds.</strong></span></h3> <p>Schisandra chinensis (五味子 in Chinese, pinyin: wǔ wèi zi, literally "five-flavor berry" which is its common name is a deciduous woody vine native to forests of Northern China and the Russian Far East. It is hardy in USDA Zone 4. The plant likes some shade with moist, well-drained soil. The species itself is dioecious, thus flowers on a female plant will only produce fruit when fertilized with pollen from a male plant. However, a hybrid selection titled 'Eastern Prince' has perfect flowers and is self-fertile. Seedlings of 'Eastern Prince' are sometimes sold under the same name, but are typically single-sex plants.</p> <p> </p> <p>Schisandra is native to northern and northeastern China (Manchuria). Cultivation requirements are thought to be similar to those of grapes. Plants require conditions of moderate humidity and light, together with a wet, humus-rich soil. Tens of tons of berries are used annually in Russia in Primorsky Krai and Khabarovsk Krai for the commercial manufacture of juices, wines, extracts, and sweets.</p> <p> </p> <p>Its Chinese name comes from the fact that its berries possess all five basic flavors: salty, sweet, sour, pungent (spicy), and bitter. Sometimes, it is more specifically called běi wǔ wèi zi (Chinese: 北五味子); literally "northern five-flavor berry") to distinguish it from another traditionally medicinal schisandraceous plant Kadsura japonica that grows only in subtropical areas. Another species of schisandra berry, Schisandra sphenanthera, has a similar but different biochemical profile; the Chinese pharmacopia distinguishes between S. chinensis (běi wǔ wèi zi) and S. sphenanthera (nan wǔ wèi zi).</p> <p> </p> <p>Its berries are used in traditional Chinese medicine, where it is considered one of the 50 fundamental herbs. Chemical constituents include the lignans schisandrin, deoxyschisandrin, gomisins, and pregomisin, which are found in the seeds of the fruit. It should not be used by pregnant women.</p> <p> </p> <p>In China, a wine is made from the berries.</p> <p>In Korean, the berries are known as omija (hangul: 오미자 – five flavours). The cordial drink made from the berries is called omija cha (hangul: 오미자 차), meaning "omija tea"; see Korean tea.</p> <p>In Japanese, they are called gomishi (Japanese: ゴミシ). The Ainu people used this plant, called repnihat, as a remedy for colds and sea-sickness.</p> <p>In traditional Chinese medicine, S. chinensis (known as wu wei zi (Chinese: 五味子)) is believed to act as an astringent for the Qi of the lungs and kidneys, restrain the essence to treat diarrhea, arrest excessive sweating from deficiency of yin or yang, calm the spirit by refreshing the heart and kidneys, and generate body fluid and reduce thirst.</p> <p> </p> <p>The great interest in limonnik (S. chinensis) in Russia arises from results of ethnopharmacological investigations of Russian scientists in the Far East regions where the berries and seeds were used by Nanai (Goldes or Samagir) hunters to improve night vision, as a tonic and to reduce hunger, thirst and exhaustion since “it gives forces to follow a sable all the day without food”."Pharmacological studies on animals have shown that Schisandra increases physical working capacity and affords a stress-protective effect against a broad spectrum of harmful factors including heat shock, skin burn, cooling, frostbite, immobilisation, swimming under load in an atmosphere with decreased air pressure, aseptic inflammation, irradiation, and heavy metal intoxication. The phytoadaptogen exerts an effect on the central nervous, sympathetic, endocrine, immune, respiratory, cardiovascular, gastrointestinal systems, on the development of experimental atherosclerosis, on blood sugar and acid-base balance, and on uterus myotonic activity."</p> <p> </p> <h2><strong>Propagation</strong></h2> <p>Seed - best sown in the autumn in a cold frame. Pre-soak stored seed for 12 hours in warm water and sow in a greenhouse in the spring. Germination can be slow and erratic. Prick out the seedlings into individual pots when they are large enough to handle and grow them on in light shade in the greenhouse for their first 2 years. Plant them out into their permanent positions in early summer.</p> <p> </p>

Bitki, asma sülüğü gibi helezonik tutmaçlarla tutunarak hızlı büyür. Yaprakları üç lopludur. Passiflora cinsi içinde Sarı çarkıfelekten sonra soğuğa en dayanıklı tür olup <strong>-20</strong> dereceye kadar kökleri dayanabilmekte ve kışın ölen bitki bu sayede yazın tekrar hayata dönebilmektedir. ABD'nin güneydoğusunda subtropikal ve soğuk iklim bölgelerine bu sayede yayılabilmiştir.</p> <p>Bitkiden ayrıca ilaç sanayinde de yararlanılmaktadır. "Passiflora" adlı bir ilacın üretiminde bu bitki ve meyveleri kullanılmaktadır.</p> <p>Genellikle maypop, mor çarkıfelek, gerçek çarkıfelek, yabani kayısı ve vahşi tutku asma olarak bilinen Passiflora incarnata, tırmanma veya sondaki saplarla hızlı büyüyen çok yıllık bir asmadır. Çarkıfelek cinsi Passiflora'nın bir üyesi olan maypop, belirgin stilleri ve organlarındaki büyük, karmaşık çiçeklere sahiptir. Çarkıfelek türünün en sert türlerinden biri olan güney Amerika'da yaygın bir kır çiçeği. Tennessee bölgesindeki Cherokee buna ocoee adını verdi; Ocoee Nehri ve vadisi, Tennessee eyalet kır çiçeği olan bu bitkinin adını almıştır. Bu ve diğer çarkıfelekleri, Körfez fritillary için özel larva konakçı bitkilerdir ve alacalı fritiller kelebekler için münhasır değildir.</p> <p>Sapları pürüzsüz veya tüylü olabilir; uzun ve takipçidirler, birçok dalları vardır.

Sakinleştirici niteliklere ve plasebodan başka tıbbi faydalara rağmen, sakinleştirici bir sakız bile üretilmiştir.</p> <p>Hipertansiyonu azaltmak için P. incarnata kullanılmıştır. Yapraklardan metanol ekstraksiyonlarının farelerde etkili bir antitussif olduğu bildirilmiştir.</p> <p>Avrupa'ya getirildikten sonra, zihinsel stres, anksiyete sinirlilik, kabızlık, hazımsızlık, hafif enfeksiyonlar ve uykusuzluk gibi hafif semptomların hafifletilmesi için doğal bir ilaç olarak herbolojide popüler bir ilaç haline geldi. "Bugün, çarkıfelek resmi olarak Fransa, Almanya ve İsviçre'nin ulusal farmakopelerinde yer alıyor ve aynı zamanda İngiliz Bitkisel Farmakopesi ve İngiliz Bitkisel Özeti, ESCOP monografları, EMA'nın Topluluk Bitkisel Monografları, Alman Standart Lisansları, Alman Homoeopatik Farmakopesi, Amerika Birleşik Devletleri Homoeopatik Farmakopesi ve Mısır Farmakopesi.Polonya'da histeri ve nevrasteni gibi bozuklukları tedavi etmek için reçete edilmiştir.Şu anda P. incarnata yaygın olarak fitoterapide hafif bir yatıştırıcı olarak kullanılmaktadır ve Mevcut Avrupa ve İngiliz Farmakopesine dahil edilen botanik ilaçlar bitkinin kurutulmuş hava kısımlarıdır ".</p> <p>Kuzey Amerika'da ishal, adet öncesi sendromu, dismenore, nevralji, yanıklar, hemoroidler, uykusuzluk, kas krampları, histeri, nevralji ve çeşitli durumlar için ağrı kesici olarak kullanılır. P. incarnata hala Yerli Amerikalılar tarafından kullanılmaktadır, örneğin, Cherokees bitkinin kökünü topikal antienflamatuar ilaç olarak kullanır.

P. incarnata özleri ayrıca sinirlilik, karın krampları ve anksiyetenin giderilmesi için de kullanıldı.</p> <p>Dünyanın diğer bölgelerinde, P. incarnata kısmen farklı hastalıkların tedavisinde kullanılır. Örneğin, Arjantin ve Meksika'da sakinleştirici etkileri için tüketilirken, Brezilya'da analjezik, antispazmodik, anti-astımlı, cinayet ve yatıştırıcı olarak kullanılır. Bununla birlikte Hindistan'da morfin bağımlılığını tedavi etmek için kullanılmıştır, ancak Vietnam'da uykusuzluk, kaygı ve yüksek tansiyon bu bitkiden elde edilen ekstraktlarla tedavi edilmiştir. Orta Doğu'da P. incarnata'nın biraz farklı uygulamaları vardır, örneğin Türkiye'de dismenore, epilepsi, uykusuzluk, nevroz ve nevralji P. incarnata ile tedavi edilir. Ancak Irak'ta sakinleştirici ve narkotik bir ilaç olarak da kullanılmıştır. "Ruanda, Kenya ve Kongo'nun Afrika ülkelerinde P. incarnata, sakinleştirici, sinir, anti-spazmodik ve analjezik etkileri için bitki uzmanları ve doğal sağlık uygulayıcıları tarafından halk ilacı olarak kullanılmaktadır.

Toplam içeriğin% 2,5'ine kadar ulaşabilirler. Flavonoidlerin en büyük konsantrasyonunun yapraklarda olduğu bildirilmiştir. P. incarnata'da aşağıdaki flavonoidler bulunabilir: chrysin, apigenin, luteolin, quercetin, kaempferol ve isovitexin. [14] Flavonoid chrysinin, P. incarnata'nın yatıştırıcı etkisinden sorumlu ana madde olduğu düşünülmektedir. Anksiyete azaltıcı özelliğe chrysinin GABA-Benzodiazepinreseptörlere bağlanması neden olmaktadır. [15] P. incarnata'da az miktarda alkaloid bildirilmiştir (&lt;% 0.005). Alkaloitlere örnekler: harmol, harmin, harmalol.

Passiflora'nın tarımsal amaçlarla tanıttığı cinsiyet, dünyanın bazı bölgelerinde önemli bir ot olarak rapor edilmiştir. Bu bitki, şu iki yetkili kaynağa göre Amerika Birleşik Devletleri Tarım Bakanlığı tarafından invaziv olarak listelenmiştir: Kentucky Weeds ve bitişik eyaletler: bir alan kılavuzu [20] ve Amerika Birleşik Devletleri ve Kanada Weeds.</p> <p>Maypop'un yayılmasını önlemek için emicilerin düzenli olarak çıkarılması olarak mekanik kontrol tavsiye edilir. Ayrıca yaylanmayı sınırlandırmak için sarmaşıkların kafes ve çitler üzerine eğitilmesi tavsiye edilir.</p> <p>Diğer potansiyel kullanım</p> <p>P. incarnata ekstreleri UV ışınlarına karşı koruyucu bir savunma ile organik güneş kremleri üretmek için potansiyel olarak kullanılabilir.

<h2><strong><em><span style="text-decoration: underline;" class="">Marya-Marya, Bush Passion Fruit Seeds (Passiflora foetida)</span></em></strong></h2> <h3><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>Price for Package of 5 seeds.</strong></span></h3> <p>Passiflora foetida (common names: wild maracuja, bush passion fruit, marya-marya, wild water lemon, stinking passionflower, love-in-a-mist or running pop) is a species of passion flower that is native to the southwestern United States (southern Texas and Arizona), Mexico, the Caribbean, Central America, and much of South America. It has been introduced to tropical regions around the world, such as Southeast Asia and Hawaii. It is a creeping vine like other members of the genus, and yields an edible fruit. The specific epithet, foetida, means "stinking" in Latin and refers to the strong aroma emitted by damaged foliage.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>The stems are thin and wiry, covered with minute sticky yellow hairs. Older stems become woody. The leaves are three- to five-lobed and viscid-hairy. When crushed, these leaves give off a pungent odor that some people consider unpleasant. The flowers are white to pale cream coloured, about 5–6 cm diameter. The fruit is globose, 2–3 cm diameter, yellowish-orange to red when ripe, and has numerous black seeds embedded in the pulp; the fruit are eaten and the seeds dispersed by birds.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>P. foetida is able to trap insects on its bracts, which exude a sticky substance that also contains digestive enzymes. This minimizes predation on young flowers and fruits.[6] Whether or not it gains nourishment from its prey is uncertain, and it is currently considered a protocarnivorous plant.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>This passion flower tolerates arid ground, but favours moist areas. It is known to be an invasive species in some areas. This plant is also a widely grown perennial climber, and has been used in traditional medicine.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>Uses</strong></p> <p>The fruits are roughly the size of a ping pong ball or kumquat and contain a bluish-white pulp that is mildly sweet and delicately flavored. In the Philippines, the fruit of Passiflora foetida are known colloquially as marya-marya ('Little Mary'), 'kurombot', and santo papa (due to its resemblance to the Pope's mitre). Young leaves and plant tips are also edible. Dry leaves are used in tea in Vietnamese folk medicine to relieve sleeping problems, as well as treatment for itching and coughs.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>Animal interactions</strong></p> <p>Passiflora foetida is a larval host and nectar source for the Gulf fritillary (Agraulis vanillae).</p> <p>Passiflora foetida has been mentioned as a toxic plant by farmers from northeastern Brazil. An experiment done with goats led to the discovery that high levels of cyanide in P. foetida cause poisoning after the ingestion of fresh leaves, mostly during the dry season.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p><script src="//cdn.public.n1ed.com/G3OMDFLT/widgets.js"></script>
