This, the only native species of the subgenus Granadilla in the United States, ranges from Virginia to Missouri, south to Florida and Texas. The large number of specimens examined show little variation in leaf shape or in the relative lengths of the corona filaments. The peduncles are usually longer and stouter than in its close ally P. edulis, though sometimes they are as short as those prevailing in P. edulis. The sepals and petals are white or pale lavender; the corona filaments are normally pink or purple, though in the case of a few specimens (McFarlin 5823) the collectors have noted that all the flower parts are pure white. Nomenclature has become much involved due to the confusing of the two closely related species P. incarnata and P. edulis, and it seems advisable to consider the matter in some detail (see Sabine: "Some account of the purple-fruited passion flower," Trans. Hort. Soc. Lond. 3: pi. 3. 1820). Linnaeus included in his treatment of P. incarnata in the Species Plantarum (1753) the plant later described as P. edulis, giving as the distribution "Virginia, Brasilia, Peru." His first reference is to the ^
