    No, it's not. The bindweed is more cup-shaped and looks like the morning glory bloom. I don't know what that is, but it's pretty. :D

    No, I don't think that is Bindweed either, although I don't know what it IS.
    Have you got a photo of the leaves?

    Lucky for you, that is not bindweed... Whatever you have there is pretty though.
    The blooms of bindweed are ones I see too often in my line of work, and it's my nemesis! :-x I have begun to wage the battle again this season...

    Its for sure not bindweed.Those leaves are totally different as bindweed has a little heart shape leaf if I'm remembering right.I'm sure I could go to any fence line and look at the stuff on the wire and post to see.:)
