That really is a lovely one. Do all the blooms have the split petals like that? It's a very different look!

The first flowers had an unscalloped edge but lately the flowers have been how you see then here. I also like this one very much.

I agree The scalloped edges make it extra special!

And I just love the contrast between that beautiful foliage and that brilliant colored bloom! Really an exceptional plant all around!

I agree What an amazing combination! I think I'd love that plant even with a plain bloom because the foliage is outstanding!

Any sign of seeds on this beauty? Be interesting to see if the offspring look the same.

No seeds yet. The parent did not have a margin, so the Creator would only know what the progeny will look like, I suppose. Thanks Woofie and Natalie.

Ipomoea purpurea - first flower on this plant. The central area is not really this yellow; the color is an artifact caused by fluorescent lighting, I think. This strain has no name. I admire its dense pink color.
