Use caution

Passiflora identity and plant-part safety are nuanced; do not treat ornamental Krishna Kamal as broadly edible or pet-safe.

Avoid ingestion of ornamental plant parts; verify species before edible/medicinal claims.

Useful traits

FloweringStatement leavesClimbingCommon in IndiaPassifloraceae family

Krishna Kamal common naming can refer to more than one Passiflora type in nurseries.

The flowers are ornamental and complex but the vine needs space.
