A beautiful plant. Any suggestions for a source for seeds? I love vines and would love to grow this color variety.

This year I only grew moonflowers and Star of Yalta morninglories, a deep purple, for vines. I think this would look great intertwined with moonflowers and give you flowers from morning to night, as the moonflowers don't begin opening until after 4pm.

Great pix, Dinu, how big is the blossom on this morning glory?

It is not a big flower. About half an inch across and about an inch of tube beneath. It is a pretty colour with the yellowish centre.

They form a lot of seeds and I can save them for you, suncatch....

Nice pics of this unusual Morning Glory, Dinu. Found a source for seeds, but too late to grow this season.
They call it 'Orange Noah' at Mikamoki Plants and Seeds http://mikamoki.safeshopper.com/75/25.htm?769

Now I recall that the envelope was marked "Orange Noah".
