Valerian is a tallish plant with clusters of pink or, less commonly, white flowers. A perennial grows to 4-5 feet. Leaves strongly divided, pinnate with lance-shaped leaflets; lower ones toothed. Tiny, pale pink to whitish, tubular flowers, grow in three-forked terminal heads in tight clusters; each flower has a small, inrolled calyx at the base; as the fruits form, calyces become feathery parachutes. Blooms June to July.

Like many botanicals, valerian has a long history. Named the "Herb of the 19th century," is recognized worldwide for the relaxing effect it seems to have on the body. Often, in Europe, it is tried to help support anxiety. Valerian does not taste very good, but it has few unpleasant side effects. For centuries, valerian has been a popular choice by herbalists when trying to help support panic attacks or nervous tension.
The common name of valerian is heal-all, which comes from the Latin word valere, meaning "to be well". It is believed valerian is the spikenard referred to in the Bible as a perfume brought from the East.
Valerian has a distinctive, rather unpleasant smell, and was aptly called phu by the Greek physician Galen. In recent years, it has been well researched, with chemicals called valepotriates developing in valerian extracts. These can be used to support a healthy nervous system.

Passion Flower Passiflora incarnata L.
Family: Passifloraceae.
Other Names: Apricot vine; passiflore, fleur de la passion (French); Fleischfarbene Passionsblume (German); passiflora (Italian); pasiflora (Spanish).
Description: A woody perennial creeper (vine) that climbs with the aid of coiled tendrils. It has hairless, lobed leaves, large stipules and solitary, very characteristic, open, white and violet flowers, with conspicuous flower parts that have given rise to the vernacular name "passion flower". The origin is said to be a "Calvary Lesson" by Catholic missionaries in South America. The numerous petaloid corona threads are seen as a symbol for the Crown of Thorns, the five stamens for the Wounds, the three stigmas for the Nails on the Cross and the five sepals and five petals as the ten apostles (excluding Judas and Peter). The fruit is a characteristic many-seeded berry with delicious, juicy fruit pulp.
Origin: Eastern and southern parts of North America. It is cultivated to a limited extent.
Parts Used: Dried whole herb, mainly leaves and thin stems (Passiflorae herba).
Therapeutic Category: Sedative.
Uses and Properties: The main use of passion flower herb is as a mild sedative to help support nervousness, restlessness, sleeplessness and nervous digestion issues, especially in children.
Preparation and Dosage: A tea can be made with 2 g of finely chopped herb. Two or three cups are taken throughout the day, or one or two cups at bedtime (maximum daily dose is 4 - 8 g of herb). Extracts are used in a large number of sedative preparations and combinations; also in some cardiotonics.
Active Ingredients: The herb contains flavonoids (C-glycosides of vitexin, isovitexin, apigenin and luteolin), gamma-pyrone derivatives (maltol and ethylmaltol), a polyacetylene (passicol) and a cyanogenic glycoside (gynocardin). Previous reports mention indole alkaloids of the harmine type. A re-evaluation, using a sensitive HPLC method, failed to find evidence of alkaloids.
Health Effects: Passion flower has sedative, hypnotic and anti-spasmodic activity, as shown in animal studies. It is not yet clear which compounds are responsible; beta-carboline alkaloids inhibit MAO and bind to serotonin receptors; they would be good candidates for a sedative but their presence has been disputed. Maltol and ethylmaltol have CNS sedating and anticonvulsant effects.
Status: Traditional health; Pharm.; Comm. E+; ESCOP 4.

Passion Flower
(Passiflora incarnata)
Topical use: This oil, that has become synonymous with romance, is extracted from the seeds of the exotic passion flower and can be used mainly in beauty care. Passion flower can be used to help support minor cuts, abrasions, burns, and rashes. It can also be used, topically, to help support the itching and discomfort associated with hemmorhoids. Passion flower creams and salves can also be tried to help avoid skin infections, as laboratory studies have confirmed anti-infective properties of the herb when used externally.
Internal Use: Typically, it is the aerial parts of the passion flower plant that can be used to support health. Specifically, the herb can be taken internally to alleviate symptoms of nervousness, restlessness, and insomnia. Passion flower is frequently found in combination with other herbs like chamomile and hops within herbal sleep formulas.
Medicinal Usage
Passion flower is a gentle herbal tranquilizer and antispasmodic. A tea can be used to help support insomnia caused by worry and overwork, tension headaches, and neuralgia. Passion flower will slightly reduce blood pressure while increasing respiration and depressing motor activity. Extracts of the rhizome were formerly used to help support hemorrhoids, burns, and erysipelas.
The plant contains variable amounts of indole alkaloids including harman, harmine, harmaline, passiflorine, plus flavonoids, sterols, and sugars.
The above-ground plant parts are harvested when in bloom. The fruits are sweet and edible. They contain some calcium, iron, and phosphorus.
General Herb Information
There are over 400 species of passion flowers, mostly from tropical America with two species, P. incarnata and P. lutea, indigenous to the southern United States.
P. incarnata is a perennial climber found from Virginia to Florida, west to Texas and Missouri. The fast-growing vines climb with tendrils, and often reach thirty feet inlength. They die back to the root when hit by frost. The dull green leaves are four to six inches long, with three to five broad, deep lobes which have serrated margins. The fantastic floral assemblage is one of the most intricate and remarkable of the plant world. Above the ten-part receptacle is a corona with white-purple thread-like filaments. Five stamens with hammer-like anthers surround a three-parted style, topped with reddish stigmas protruding from the flower's center like the antennae of a space ship. The flowers are two to three inches across. The yellowish edible fruits-called maypops are about the size of a hen's egg and are filled with seeds surrounded by a sweet mucilaginous flesh.
Passion flowers spread from root runners and can be grown from seeds, or cuttings, or by dividing the runners in autumn.
Passion flowers need a place to climb. They often grow along fence rows or climb trees along railroad tracks. A slightly acidic sandy loam with full sun will create a good patch. In areas where temperatures dip below -15°F, passion flowers will not survive the winter.
Passion flower is known as maypop in North America and was traditionally used by the Houmas in Louisiana as a blood tonic. The Mayans regarded crushed Passion flower plant as helpful for swellings and the decoction as a disinfectant. It was first described by a European botanist in the 1780s and by the 19th century Passion flower had joined the herbal repertoire, initially as a herb that can be used for insomnia.
Today, Passion flower is considered an effective but gentle sedative and painkiller which will also reduce blood pressure. Passion flower is widely used in products for anxiety and nervous tension and is often combined with hops. An infusion of the dried herb can also be helpful for period pain or tension headaches, and can be supportive for a number of other nervous complaints such as irritable bowel syndrome and irregular heart beats.
Passion flower can be grown outside in warm areas; otherwise keep it as a conservatory or indoor climber and use the leaves in teas for insomnia.
Passion flower takes its name not from any effect it may have on the emotions, but from the religious symbolism of its flowers: the three stigmas were taken to represent the nails of the Crucifixion, the five anthers were Christ's five wounds, while the ten petals represented the Apostles present at the time (Peter and Judas Iscariot having absented themselves).

Valerian is a tallish plant with clusters of pink or, less commonly, white flowers. A perennial grows to 4-5 feet. Leaves strongly divided, pinnate with lance-shaped leaflets; lower ones toothed. Tiny, pale pink to whitish, tubular flowers, grow in three-forked terminal heads in tight clusters; each flower has a small, inrolled calyx at the base; as the fruits form, calyces become feathery parachutes. Blooms June to July.

Valerian tea can be tried as an enema and externally as a wash for sores, wounds, chronic skin problems, and pimples.
Like many botanicals, valerian has a long history. Named the "Herb of the 19th century," is recognized worldwide for the relaxing effect it seems to have on the body. Often, in Europe, it is tried to help support anxiety. Valerian does not taste very good, but it has few unpleasant side effects. For centuries, valerian has been a popular choice by herbalists when trying to help support panic attacks or nervous tension.

Valerian has a distinctive, rather unpleasant smell, and was aptly called phu by the Greek physician Galen. In recent years, it has been well researched, with chemicals called valepotriates developing in valerian extracts. These can be used to support a healthy nervous system.
