The '''Foetid Passion Flower''' or '''Stinking Passion Flower''' (''Passiflora foetida''), also known as the '''Wild Maracuja''' or '''Running Pop''', is a creeping [[vine]] which has an edible [[passion fruit|fruit]] and [[Leaf|leaves]] that have a mildly rank aroma. It is native to northern [[South America]] and the [[West Indies]]; it can also be found in South East Asian countries like [[Vietnam]] and on [[Hawaii]].

[[Image:P.foetida.leaves.jpg|thumb|left|''Passiflora foetida'' leaves]]
The stems are thin, wiry and woody, covered with sticky yellow hairs. The [[leaf|leaves]] are three- to five-lobed and viscid-hairy. They give off an unpleasant odour when crushed. The [[flower]]s 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 [[seed]]s embedded in the pulp; the fruit are eaten and the seeds dispersed by [[bird]]s.

The bracts of this plant serve as [[insect]] traps, but it is as yet unknown whether the plant digests and gains nourishment from the trapped insects or if it merely uses the bracts as a defensive mechanism to protect its flowers and fruit. This is still an issue of debate and research among [[carnivorous plant]] enthusiasts.

This passion flower tolerates [[arid]] ground, but favours wet areas. It is known to be an [[invasive species]] in some areas.

* Uses
The fruits are kumquat sized with a thin, scarlet red shell surrounding a blush-white pulp, mildly sweet, delicately flavored. Young leaves and plant tips are edible. Dry leaves are used in tea in Vietnamese folk medicine to relieve sleeping problems.
