The caterpillars of Tawny coster butterflies feed on the leaves of this plant;
Fruits are medicinal but they stink very badly due to the glandular hairs present on the throughout the plant body except fruit surface;
.
Usually, the carnivorous plants attract insects and trap them. Sundew has similar droplets on the hairs, but that is sticky and is not actually containing any food for insects. But this plant attracts and then lures them with actual food on the droplets and then traps them or kills them or makes them immobile. So in that case, this should be a new type of trapping for carnivorous plant.
.
If someone wants to work on this, I can give one idea that this plant to me seems to have some trapping mechanism for insects and hence an insectivorous plant. In the morning you can see some tiny insects stuck to its glandular hairs. Those who want to work may check the chemical constituent of the liquid on the glandular hairs. If it has anything like chitinase then for sure this is insectivorous.

Climber for ID from Mirle | 17AugAR01: This is Passiflora for sure but not sure whether is P. foetida. Passiflora foetida for sure. I myself wanted to work on this, but could never get an opportunity. I worked on the foliar aspects of Passiflora and that was one of my first scientific article ever published. Hence I have an affinity for passifloras 🙂 I like their flowers very much and trying to have atleast 12 different Passifloras in my College. Till now have only 4 sp Search in nurseries in Delhi for sure you will get more varieties. Yes this is Passiflora foetida. I never knew this plant is having medicinal values. This climber is quite a weed in rural Tamil nadu, spreading all over the short canopy.
Yes … sir, I read your stomatal study to classify Passiflora spp. This plant is included in Ayurveda I assume. And.. the fruits are edible…!!! Am adding the link for the close up in my Flickr photo stream. http://www.flickr.com/photos/giby/223506468/in/photostream
ID of passiflora species!: Yes this is Passiflora foetida. Not native to India…AND NEWLY OPENED FLOWER LOOKS VERY PRETTY LIKE ANY GARDEN variety PASSIFLORA species… Plantoftheweek
Now naturalized in most tropical areas… is on a noxious weed list:
invasive species Though it seems to have some nice redeeming value… I liked the last sentence in WIKI .. that its saponin richness is useful in making nondetergent sahmpoo/soap… love that… http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Passiflora_foetida
And Australian site that tracks useful plants list it:
Newcrops GO FIGURE…!!!
Edict that Trash of one is gold of other….must be true !!
About the shampoo soap….wonder if someone has made it???
WHAT INTRIGUED ME THE MOST IS A PAPER BY DR RADHARAMANI of Bangalore… which states that the intricate network of the bracts on the surface of the fruit makes this plant a protocarnivorous, or borderline carnivorous… ((Radhamani, T. R., L. Sudarshana, et al. (1995).
Defense and carnivory: Dual role of bracts in Passiflora foetida. Journal of Biosciences Bangalore 20(5): 657-664. {a} Promotion Res. Dev. Efforts Selected Crops., PC Unit, Bangalore 560 065, India )) I could
access only the abstract… the pdf needs to be bought at springerlink site!!!
DOES ANY ONE AT EFLORA HAVE ACCESS TO DR RADHARAMANI or to this paper??
Open access to the article is available at:
http://www.ias.ac.in/jarch/jbiosci/20/657-664 However, I hv also attached the pdf here… I knew that the bracts exude a sticky substance, but I never expected digestive enzymes in it…its an information to me…thanks to all… Dear …, your hypothesis (in an another thread) seems to be correct the autoradiograph is interesting and the bracts picked up the most labelled phenylalanine… so the organ that’s source of enzymes is also the uptake organ??? I’ll keep the link you sent me as a source, I downloaded and read the paper you sent in, thanks again.. My plant from Dehradun.
Yes this plant is amazing. Earlier my casual believe was the plant has glandular hairs to repel insects as it also has a strange odour. But my experiments with the plant proved that there was something more. It had this ability to make the insects feel dizzy or something not normal happened to the insects I used. I had no means to prove what!! I believed that there was something which attracted insects to the plants. Apart from being attracted, the same gland were used for digestion of the insects too, usually very small sized ones. Today .. made me happy to realise that my thoughts were not absurd :p. Usually, the carnivorous plants attract insects and trap them. Sundew has similar droplets on the hairs, but that is sticky and is not actually
containing any food for insects.
But this plant attracts and then lures them with actual food on the droplets and then traps them or kills them or makes them immobile. So in that case, this should be a new type of trapping for carnivorous plant.
But yes, I had not seen this reference before. Thanks a lot for sharing. The protocarnivorous thing was news to me when I read the abstract upon googling, that’s why I wrote about it, it intrigued me because I had not heard anybody talk of it or write about this Passiflora foetida being one..
I was actually doing foliar studies on three species of this genus and is one of my first free lance article before my MSc results came out. Thought I should share this. The young fruits of P. foetida look like Christmas tree decorations which have been strung!
Would appreciate your help to Id this creeping wine growing wild along a fence of a private society at Pune. Green leaves with a lot of hair and secretions. tendrils, could see only one dried white broken flower. Green berry like fruits about 2-3 cm completely entangled in hair.
Is it some Passiflora? Yes, some Passiflora (family: Passifloraceae) … most possibly P. foetida, in Marathi: घाणी वेल ghani vel It looks like Passiflora foetida to me too. The best way to confirm is to smell the fruits if it turns out to be gross (foetida = bad smell) then you are confirmed. Yes Passiflora foetida. This is a highly medicinal plant. The green fruit on opening had a grey blue pulp but no smell. The yellow dry fruit had brown seeds inside and a mild fragrance of what we call ‘Shikekai’ in Marathi. I am sorry I do not its English name. Attaching pictures of the same. Today I could spot one flower in the morning at about 11.a.m . But to my surprise the flower had closed by 3.00 pm. It was completely entangled with hair like structures. Probably the flower opens only in the early morning hours. There was another closed flower without surrounding hair like structures though.. Sorry I forgot to mention the dimensions of the flower. It was about 3cms. Passiflora foetida i think think so too I have added the pictures of the flower because I did not find a single flower on the plant the first time except a dried broken flower. When I visited the same place in the morning I was lucky to see this beautiful flower and was overjoyed to see its intricacy and wanted very much to share the same with my friends. I am very happy that you shared and followed up with more pictures of the physiological function… flower opening, and closing, hopefully after fertilization and getting ensconced in its own hairy net…. mnow lets wait and see the fruit develop from it?

Identification, please. Passiflora foetida!
Why all post on thigh? Please add images of other aspects of plant!
Thank you, once again!
The focus during field work was on insects and trees. Most of the understory was photographed in a hurry to cover as much ground as possible, and hence only a few photographs per specimen are available for the herbs and shrubs.
Since the ground was full of vegetation, photos were taken against the black backdrop of the trouser to provide contrast. I guess this might be unusual, but it is what I could think of at that moment.
Unfortunately, I can’t go there right now to get better photographs, but the first opportunity I get, I will be able to post better photographs for all of you.

Passiflora foetida photographed from near Kaikondrahalli lake, Bangalore, 17-9-2015. The ID is correct. This is a common weed in Bangalore and Mysore. I have plenty around my home. . Passiflora foetida VS Passiflora vesicaria: As per this publication (Curtis’s Botanical Magazine 2013 vol. 30 (4): pp. 318–387: Summary: Revision of Passiflora subgenus Passiflora section Dysosmia DC. (Passifloraceae). The twenty one species and 10 varieties (31 taxa) comprising subgenus Passiflora section Dysosmia DC are described and some are illustrated with photographs and line drawings. Two species, Passiflora vesicaria L. and Passiflora ciliata (Dryand) Mast., are removed from synonymy and reinstated to species rank. Passiflora baraquiniana Lemaire is removed from synonymy and given varietal status. The species Passiflora santiagana (Killip) Borhidi is reduced in rank to varietal status. Of the 38 varieties of Passiflora foetida L. described by E. P. Killip in his 1938 monograph, 28 are reduced to synonymy, four are reassigned as varieties of other species and four remain as varieties of P. foetida. A new variety, Passiflora foetida var. ellisonii Vanderplank, is described with photographs and line drawings.), only Passiflora foetida var. ellisonii Vanderplank is being shown as having distribution in India. Thanks … for pointing out this resource. It certainly has bearing on the observations of what is considered Passiflora foetida in India. The specimens I have come across, all have corona filaments which are white with lower 1/3 to 1/2 pink or mauve, and the 3-lobed leaves have side lobes blunt or rounded. This agrees best with Passiflora vesicaria L. var. vesicaria which has distribution in India.
Passiflora foetida var. ellisonii, as … pointed out, also has distribution in India. Specimens with almost pure white corona filaments should belong to this subspecies. Publication does not specifically mention distribution in India for this (Passiflora vesicaria L. var. vesicaria), but says: India is the major “Old World” tropical country … observation from Panipat
in my opinion, should belong to Passiflora foetida var. ellisonii.
And … observation

This observation was suggested to be Passiflora vesicaria L. var. vesicaria by Martin Wettges in iNaturalist.
Since there were no thoughts forthcoming I changed my mind to retain the ID of P. foetida. My feeling is that as POWO 1 and POWO 2 and CoL are still not updating their databases despite POWO mentioning it in its references, we may keep our observations as Passiflora foetida only for the time being. .
