Ronnie - I have what looks like 'Akatsuki no Umi' growing along my fence. (See my photo here in this post!) The one I have labeled Aogakiyama has the look of deep blue/purple velvet with that fetching pink throat. I don't know what it is... Thank you for trying to help me ID it! :-) :-) :-)

Gordon - Thanks! Glad you are enjoying the blooms, too! I am going to be sooo bummed when their life cycle ends and I have to rip them all out and start new vines from seeds. But I have my fingers crossed that I get lots and lots of seeds from all these vines! :-) :-)

Martin - The I. carnea will eventually be a lush, tall bush. I think it could be trimmed up and trained as a standard form (tree) as well. This is the second year of mine. I grew it from seed last year and I think it got it's first bloom late in the Fall.

Jackie - Thanks! :-)
