The history of the origination of the name for passion fruit is very interesting. It was named to signify the "Passion of Christ." There are many symbolic traits that signify the Crucifixion of Christ.

 

Even the color of the fruit of the purple variety symbolizes lent.

 

Its central pillar represents the column where Jesus was so brutally flogged, and the many slender tendrils surrounding its base were likened to the cords and whips used in the Scourging.

 

The three top stigma, each with a roughly rounded head, symbolize the three nails used to drive the spikes into His flesh.

 

The five anthers are symbolic of the five Sacred Wounds and the circle of filaments that compose the dramatic center of this flower represent the Crown of Thorns.

 

The rays within the flower form a nimbus, representing His divine glory.

 

The leaves on many of these plants are shaped like the spear that pierced His Heart.

 

The 10 petals represent the 10 apostles who forsook their Master and fled, omitting Judas, the traitor, and St. John, who remained with Our Lady under the Cross.

 

A symbolic meaning was found even for the often round shape of the passion fruit itself: it represents the sinful world that Christ came to save by the supreme Sacrifice of His life.
