    I was sitting outside early this morning and spotted another blue morning glory. I really like this one.

    So, maybe this will be my favorite. It's really a big one, too. That's dr's fingers.
    The fence squares are 2"x3" so that makes the flower about 3 inches. The other two are about the size of most of the others.

    I have enjoyed your morning glories, as I haven't even begun to get mine started here. We just had another frosty nite so I can't be in too big of a hurry to get them out. In the meantime I'll just keep enjoying yours-if you don't mind.

    That one is a beauty also. Was this a mixed package of seed? Many beautiful colors. Thanks for sharing.

    Cajunbelle said they are called Heavenly Blue. I am thinking I did have a package of those. I need to go look through the empty seed paks for this year and see if I can find one. dooley

    Very pretty! Yup, it looks like the Heavenly Blue that I usually plant Dooley.
    They are big blooms for sure!

    Wow, that is so beautiful it hardly looks real! Just gorgeous. I LOVE those perfect heart shaped leaves... Guess what I found coming up in the "forgotten" corner of my yard behind the garage? MORNING GLORIES!! I am so excited! Last year I sprinkled some seeds but just never really paid attention so I guess the vines got hold of them. This year, it's somewhat cleaned up and this is where I have my composter and a couple of veggies. It's very quiet and warm back there.

    I planted some a few years ago that were that color and big. They grew up the side and across the sunshade on our dog pen. They were much longer than the others. It is a lovely color. Wannabe
