This Ipomoea, which I start very late in the season now start to flower, the flower open up very early in the morning. When I look today at 6 o'clock it was open. It begin flower even that it is dark outside, the sun donīt went up here before 8.
Also the flower is only open about 5 hours!!!???
And I even donīt know if it start flower in the middle of the night neither.
It is a Ipomoea nil I think beacuse of the leaf. But which one? Thats the question.

Sylvia - It looks like one of the Ipomoea nil pinks that come out of the Early Call mix...I'm not aware of it having a particular name...
Yes,the MG's often open up for me before dawn...sometimes at 3 in the morning...
Nice color...next year plant some in containers to bring them indoors to finish seed ripening...
TTY,...

Thanks Ron, Iīve got them from Emma, then it is not Candy Pink!
Iīve bought seeds this autumn to Candy Pink on Ebay, nice, then I have two kind from Early Call mix and Candy Pink(next year)
Sylvia
Sylvia - Candy Pink should have a solid pink tube >no white at all...
Okay Ron thanks, then I know, next year I shall grow Candy Pink I bought from Ebay.
Can also tell you I save all my Ipomoeas outside my house, I dig up them all and put into pots and the put into my porsch there I have both roof and glasswindows and doors. This morning it was temperature below zero outside +/-0 degree Celsius, so they feel well and I can now collect seeds soon which are in good health. Now I have invest in some big selfwatering pots for next year to have in my porsch with Ipomoea then perhaps also Ipomoea nil manage to start flower long time before frost.
The picture is of my Ipomoea Rebecca, start bloom early and have give me seeds for a lifetime. It is a pretty one, and a MG with so much flower I have ever seen.
Sylvia, Pretty Rebecca. Very nice with so many flowers open at the same time.

Sylvia - Love my Rebecca, too! Bloomed late, but now has blooms every day! So pretty! Love the photo of yours!!!
Thank you, yes this one, Rebecca, really are good for, saying Blooms Like Crazy, I have never in my life seen such Ipomoea, with so many flower, thousand of them it have been. I love it. I think that purpurea is the oneīs which like it best in our climate.
