This one just popped up in one of my indoors pots this past winter. I'm glad I grew it out.

I like the split petals and color of this Ipomoea purpurea.

I like the way that one is uniformly split. It looks like a starfish.

It is a fun one. I had to grow several seeds out to get the true phenotype. There was considerable bee cross pollination at the growing site in Japan.

The lawn mower has ended up 'bonsaiing' a lot of morning glory. I have hundreds of seedlings coming up in the grass beneath the MG arches. The whole plant is about an inch tall! This one is Peppermint Hige .. it always starts out as singles.

The second picture is Shidare a 'weeping' MG. It has either lost the climbing/twining genes or they're totally turned off.

Thanks, Anne, Ronnie and Alana. I transferred the plant outdoors to take advantage of the cloudy weather we're having this week. Let's hope for survival!

Anne, I like those MGs. Shidare has wonderful leaves.

This flower was waiting for me at work today.

Pretty Joseph, nice shade of blue. I pull some of mine so they don't get too invasive.
