My ipomoea ochraceas are doing wonderfully this season. Lots of blooms and many seed pods forming. Am starting to harvest seeds :o)

Dratted freak freeze and snowfall in December 2004 zapped my vines to the ground. Glad they grew back :o) They have really long tendrils. Some vines have wandered over my backyard side gate and latched onto trellises on the east side of my house - which is about 20 or so feet away.

Here's a recent photo of some blooms...these are way up high as this vine has decided to work it's way onto my roof - had to get my ladder out to photograph them!
