The Passiflora holosericea is a very desirable stove climber, 
for although its blossoms are much less brilliant than in some 
of the other species, yet they are by no means without beauty, 
and make up by their number and fragrance what they want 
in splendid colouring. 
Native of Vera Cruz, in South America, whence it was 
introduced into the Chelsea garden by Dr. Witt1am Houstoun 
before the year 1733. Flowers most part of the summer. 
Our drawing was made at the Comtesse de Vanpxs’ collection 
at Bayswater in August 1815,
