Heavenly Blue Morning Glory

Ipomoea tricolor: Gardeners tend to confuse the Heavenly Blue Morning Glory, a tidy heirloom annual, with the invasive bindweed, Convolvulus arvensis. The only similarities are that they both bear the name Morning Glory, and have trumpet shaped flowers, but the similarities end there. Heavenly Blue morning glory seeds produce short vines bearing copious, huge, intensely blue flowers that open each morning and then fade to pink before closing for good in the evening from mid to late summer. It looks spectacular climbing along a fence or trellis, with really large flowers that can only be described as Heavenly Blue.
