A Cassiopea Plant?
August 5, 2013 7:16 AM   Subscribe

What plant is this? I only have a picture of the flower.

Also, are there any good forums/websites that are good for asking plant ID questions? I went to a neat garden over the weekend that had a lot of flowers and plants I had never seen before and not very many labels. I tried using Google image search with my photos but didn't have much success. This is the plant I most want to identify, though - I've been calling it a Cassiopea jellyfish plant.

Best answer: Purple Passion-Vine (Passiflora incarnata), as seen on this website?

Many species of Passion Flower have edible fruit as an added bonus.
