This one came to me as Ipomoea nil 'Ukigumo', and I'm hoping someone can tell me if this is correct, and if not, what the real Ukigumo looks like (hopefully in a few days, I'll find one in better shape to take a pic of).

Whether or not this is the real Ukigumo, I am totally in love with it - thank you PamSue and the trader you got it from (Cynda). To us, this is just spectacular.

This is one of the last (of approximately 56 kinds of MGs in our garden this year) to open. Emma's rose and chocolate-rose silks opened up weeks ago in the same part of the garden (also fairy-tale flowers). It's also extremely vigorous with approximately 15' long vines, well branched.

Thanks in advance for any advice,
