Perennial Morning Glory - Ipomoea indicia

Growing along a tall fence in my backyard. This perennial vine is a profuse bloomer Spring into Fall. I've determined this variety is Ipomoea indica (Burm. f.) Merr. based upon research from the USDA and Calflora.

Thanks for all the comments. Nannygam, this variety of Morning Glory does not produce seeds; its flowers are sterile. It is propagated by cuttings, layering or root division. While it is frost tender, the good news is that you live in a state where it is grown. The bad news is, if left unchecked it will take over your entire yard; this is a highly invasive plant.

I love the texture and colours in this shot. It is a beautiful portrait of a flower. Such a shame that Convolvulus is so invasive. It has a bad name for itself over here in GB.

This is gorgeous. You must share my love for blue flowers. I have also planted morning glory along my fence from seed. Hope they turn out as lovely.
