This was tagged "Scarlet O'Hara" which obviously it is not. I love the foliage. Does anyone know what it might be?

I was pretty sure it was still a morning glory - look at the cotyledons.

Hi

It's this one here, you will have to save the seed for it to come back every year - I am growing it at the moment

Thanks - that's the only one I could remember seeing with that kind of foliage. I appreciate the confirmation.

Joanne - Your leaves definitely look like Cardinal Climber: http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/go/662/

The hummingbirds love those little blooms. Must be a good nectar source for those little birdies! :-)

Thanks Becky - I hope it is.

I rarely see morning glory vines for sale here, so it was a pleasant surprise to find them in a local department store greenhouse. Now I just have to find some room to put them....LOL.
