Bl Wonder Star
 
3 Attachment(s)
This :photo: is Bl Wonder Star (aka. Bl Morning Glory x B nodosa). Basically, 3/4 nodosa and 1/4 purpurata. The colors of the Wonder Star when first opened are almost identical to my Morning Glory, but tend to fade to white much quicker. The first pic was taken on 12/18 and the second two pics were taken today, on 12/29 (my birthday!!), about a week after the first pic was taken. Also, as you can see in the background, there are about 20 or so more buds yet to bloom, so I should have flowers for much of the winter!!:biggrin: :biggrin: As always, thanks for lookin!!:)

:dance: Happy Birthday Steve! :violin:

that's a gorgeous plant... and for sure it will be attonishing with more than 20 flowers...
Superb!


only kenw these purpurata crosses from pictures of the flowers, and always thought they would be bigger plant (more like the purpurata)... it seems it could suit perfect in my collection

Great growing Steve! Is that a morning glory seedling I see in the corner of the basket? (HMM)

Happy Birthday Steve! :cheer: What a lovely plant. While I really love your Morning Glory I really like this paler version too.

Thanks for all the "Happy Birthdays" and kind words!! Nothing like a birthday full of blooms and front portch that smells wonderful every night!!
