As the rays of the morning sun move into my garden these dainty little blue flowers shine like gems, sparkling on my fence. When they open there seems to be more blue than green. The flowers close by dusk as the sun fades.
This Morning Glory (ipomoea) is a vigorous, fast-growing creeper, winds itself around and holds on to anything! I smuggled a little sapling in a shoe-box from Chennai. I am known to take cuttings and little saplings from far and near places, mostly from friends’ gardens, to try and grow them myself and have been successful many-a-time.
Nurturing a little sapling into a full-grown, thriving plant like this gives real pleasure, makes me happy.
So beautiful!
