The fruit is a pepo, a type of berry, round to oval, either yellow or dark purple at maturity, with a soft to firm, juicy interior filled with numerous seeds. The fruit is both eaten and juiced, with the juice often added to other fruit juices to enhance aroma.
In the flower itself, the faith-imbued people of the time imagined that the flower’s different parts symbolized various instruments used in the Passion of Christ (hammer and nails, crown of thorns…). This is what gave the flower its name.
