Passionflower and passionflower tea to treat anxiety:

There is a considerable body of scientific evidence supporting the use of passionflower to treat anxiety.  Although the body of evidence is small, and much of it comes from animal studies, the preliminary evidence is strongly suggestive that passionflower is not only effective for reducing anxiety and promoting relaxation, but is safer and less habit-forming than a number of similar prescription drugs in widespread use.

There is also evidence supporting the use of passionflower for other purposes, including as a cough suppressant (antitussive), and as an aphrodisiac (enhancing sexual desire).
