and many other European and Latin American languages. It is called Coralita,
Coral Bells, Coral Creeper, Sandwich Island Creeper Chain of Love, Hearts On A
Chain, Honolulu Creeper, Mexican Creeper, Bride's Tears, Queen's Jewels or
Queen’s Wreath, Chinese Love Vine,
Mexican Love Vine, Pink Vine, Confederate-vine, Cemetery Vine, St James’
flower, St Michael’s flower, Bee Bush and Mountain-Rose etc. in English. But
because it is a native of Tropical America and probably came to India during
the same time as when the AJCB Botanical Garden was started in Kolkata during
mid-18th Century we hardly find its names in other vernacular languages of
India and none in Sanskrit. However later some names developed in some languages
and we know that it is called <i>Anantalata</i> in Bengali, <i>Ice Cream Vel</i>
in Marathi, <i>Kodi Rose</i> or <i>Koti Rosa</i> in Tamil. In my state I asked
some locals in Southern Odisha where I find it widely spread everywhere, and
they told me that they call it <i>Boondi Phool</i> in Odia.</span></p>

dark green leaves form whorls of </span><span style="color: #4a442a; font-family: georgia, serif; line-height: 150%;">3-10. The upper side of the leaves is glossy, while the
underside is grayish. White funnel-shaped strongly perfumed flowers bloom in
the month October. The flowers are </span><span style="color: #4a442a; font-family: georgia, serif; line-height: 150%;">crowded, numerous, somewhat
hairy, and are a colour blend of </span><span style="color: #4a442a; font-family: georgia, serif; line-height: 150%;">white, cream and green</span><span style="color: #4a442a; font-family: georgia, serif; line-height: 150%;">; about 1
centimeter long, hairy in the throat. </span><span style="color: #4a442a; font-family: georgia, serif; line-height: 150%;">The seeds are oblong, with ciliated margins, and ends with
tufts of hairs 1.5–2 cm. The tree has regular branches and of a very symmetrical
shape. The bark and leaves produce a milky latex when injured, which is toxic. </span><span style="color: #4a442a; font-family: georgia, serif; line-height: 150%;">All parts of the tree can be considered poisonous.</span><span style="color: #4a442a; font-family: georgia, serif; line-height: 150%;">The bark is very
bitter in taste. Ditamine is a useful alkaloid obtained from this tree. That’s
why it is also called Ditabark. </span><span style="color: #4a442a; font-family: georgia, serif; line-height: 150%;">Leaves are generally found in the group of seven. That is
why it is called <i>Saptaparni</i> in
Sanskrit and some other Indian languages also because <i>Sapta</i> means seven and <i>parni</i>
means leaves. The fruition period is late winter season i.e. January to February.<o:p></o:p></span></span></span></span></div>

<span style="color: #1d1b11; font-family: georgia, serif;">I’ll relate one of my personal experiences of the efficacy of the wonderful
property of this plant. Around ten years ago during my stay at Cuttack once I
suffered from viral fever. The fever subsided after one week. But intermittent
slow temperature and feverish feeling continued. I kept taking medicine. After
one month I grew tired of them. I asked our housemaid to collect me some leaves
of <i>Har shingar</i> tree. She gave it to
me. I washed them and boiled them with 1 glass water. When the water was
reduced to 1 cup I took it out and let it cool down. Then I crushed the boiled
leaves a bit and extracted the water. I took it simply even without honey or <i>Tulsi</i> thrice daily for two or three
days. My fever, temperature everything was completely cured without any further
medication. I have tried and have got the good result. It has no side effect at
all. It’s the miracle medicine for all kinds of fever no doubt.</span> </div><div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="line-height: 150%; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="line-height: 150%; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; text-align: justify;"><i>N.B.👉All the above is solely for informational purpose and NOT INTENDED TO PROVIDE ANY KIND OF MEDICAL ADVICE.

<span style="color: #444444; font-family: georgia, serif;">Here in my state i.e. Orissa during the pious month of <em><span style="font-family: georgia, serif;">Kartik</span></em> (which is November), the old women especially widows observe their <i>habisha</i> or fasting and worship Lord Vishnu in the form of Lord Jagannath. During Habisha they observe great penance, they don’t use oil, don’t take any non-veg food, or garlic, onion or spicy curry. They eat sunned (<i>arua</i>) rice, moong or masoor dal. Only limited and particular vegetables are allowed to take, like plantain, yam, and arum. The dalma or dal with these vegetables is cooked without oil or spice. Only a little bit of ghee is allowed. During this period of penance and austerity they cook and eat the leaves of <i>Agasti</i> as a leafy vegetable or <i>saag</i>. Most probably because of its good iron content it has been introduced traditionally as a good nutrition supplement.</span></div>

<span style="line-height: 150%; mso-fareast-font-family: Batang;"><span style="font-family: georgia, "times new roman", serif;"><span style="color: #444444;">Passion flower vine produces very beautiful white flowers with purple,
blue, or pink calyx crown blooms. The blooming period is from May to
July but it flowers almost all the year round.
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It is a perennial climber
with a woody stem that grows to a length of nearly 15–20 m height where
support is available. The leaves are alternate, palmately five-lobed
10–18 cm long and wide. The flower is complex, about 10 cm diameter,
with the five sepals and petals similar in appearance, whitish in
colour, surmounted by a corona of blue or violet filaments, then five
greenish-yellow stamens and three purple stigmas. The fruit is a smooth,
yellow, ovate berry containing numerous seeds. Passionflower is very
easy to propagate through root division or by seed. A lattice or fence
could be provided near it for good growth, since it is a climbing vine
with tendrils seeking a support.<o:p></o:p></span></span></span>

passionflower got its name because its corona resembles the crown of
thorns worn by Jesus Christ during the crucifixion. It symbolizes
Christ's suffering on the cross. It is more commonly known as the crown
of thorns. I have often heard in my area that this flower resembles a
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">rakhi </i>which is worn on the
wrist of every brother on
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Rakshya Bandhan</i> festival all
over India as the symbol of a sister’s love for her brother. It’s one of
my favourite flowers. Its colour, fragrance, shape, the vine, the
leaves; everything about it is simply unique and magically
beautiful.</span></span></span><br />

the Americas and later in Europe as a calming herb for anxiety,
insomnia, seizures, and hysteria. It is still used today to treat
anxiety and insomnia. A decoction of passion flower has been
successfully used in bronchial asthma. It has been used in Europe and
America as a healing for burns; extract of the herb have a marked effect
on inflammations. Early research indicated that an extract of passion
flower was effective against the disturbance of menopause.<o:p></o:p></span></span></span>

convulsions, and vomiting. Oral doses of 250-350 mg will produce
distinct psychotic symptoms, full of hallucinations, followed by
pronounced central nervous system depression. Hence, passion flower is
sometimes used as a mild hallucinogen. The ancient Aztecs reportedly
used passionflower as a sedative and pain reliever. But unlike other
sedatives passionflower is non-addictive. Passion Flower Tea benefits
have been recognized for over 200 years by the Native Americans as
effective in sedating and calming the nerves. The parts of the plant
(flowers, leaves, and stems) are used for medicinal purposes. Passion
Flower may reduce chemical reactions that cause nausea and vomiting as a
result of withdrawal from drugs like cocaine, heroin etc., and this may
prove useful as a support for those patients trying to withdraw from
such dangerous addictives.<o:p></o:p></span></span></span>

<span><span style="font-family: georgia, "times new roman", serif;"><span style="color: #444444;">This flower always reminds me of a beautiful portion of the Drama ‘Abhigyana Shakuntalam’ by the greatest Sanskrit Poet Kalidasa. When Shakuntala the beautiful daughter of Rishi Kanwa meets Dushyanta, the King of Hastina, soon it results in love at first sight between the two. Before leaving the spot with her friends she feigns that the prick of a Kurubaka plant hurt her sole and she bends down under the pretext of taking out the prick to steal a glance at her beloved. <span> </span>This drama is one immortal creation in Sanskrit literature.<o:p></o:p></span></span></span></div>
