Well, give me the basics on how you did it. What size container did you use, what soil mix, lighting etc. I'm not a novice gardener so you don't have to take up your time explaining everything. At least I don't think you do.

Have you grown morning glory before?

Yes. Outside.

I will start a thread outside of this one in the forum.

There was a halo of light on a 'Lona Mae' flower this afternoon, a morning glory (Ipomoea nil) I named after my mother who died last year. The backlighting was perfect.

Oh, that's lovely! I like the tiny flecks in that one. I'm sure your mother would be pleased.

Thank you.

Awesome photography on that one Joseph

Thank you, Ronnie.

A flower from today, sans halo.

That really is nice. And that's a stable cross?

The parent was a solid lavender with white reverse tube. I don't know what this one's progeny will look like, but they will be nice.

Are you hand pollinating at all? It would be so nice if this one turned out to be a stable cross.

I see no need in hand pollinating since the flowers seem to be nicely self-fertile (that is, the plant is making some seeds). I have no bees to worry about since the plants are indoors. Am I missing something? I'd like to learn.

Ha! I'm just greedy! When I was growing indoor MGs that I liked, I hand pollinated every single bloom, just to make sure I got LOTS of seeds. Sigh, don't have that kind of time now, tho.

Here is one from yesterday.

I like the blue flecks today.

The flash gives the flower different appearance.
