There is Ipomoea lonchophylla as entered in the PlantFiles here

there is currently no picture but the flowers on this one are white or a pale pinkish...

I may have sent you a couple seeds...

I've not seen any large flowered types where I would say the color is really a 'peach' color,but I have seen an elusive Ipomoea purpurea that shows up every so often that has a combination of a light pink and a bit of 'something' that makes the flower look like a pale 'peach' color...the seeds are light colored and burst out of the seedpod within a few days of ripening and every time I've seen it,it's been on other peoples property and the vines were completely intertwined,seedpods were either unripe and/or empty...

I'm hoping to catch it at some point...

There are some Sakata seed packets like "Akatsuki no Haru" where the pictorial looks to be a 'peachy' color,but the flowers are actually a pink...

TTY,...
