Morning Glories: Need help IDing some Grays, 1 by gardener2005

The de colored crest means the petal waves between the creases are decolored or lighter. It looks just like paint drying. The way you differentiate it from the ray pattern is there is a central somewhat circular area lightened right where the petal undulates ever so slightly outward between the creases in the corolla. The ray pattern will show lightening all the way to the edges of the petals.

I`m not going to state whether the term "crest" should be used for morning glories but wish to explain what this looks like and how to not confuse it with the ray pattern. I can identify with the word crest as the crest of the wave of the corolla undulating between the petal creases. If there were another better term than de colored crest I`d accept it but the picture of the pattern would be in my mind regardless of the name.
