I have this one label as nil 'Rosita' could it be right,
I had hope it was 'Dracula' but it is label Rosita and seems not look like dracula.

Does anyone have seeds to Ipomoea Dracula to share with me, I have a lot of Ipomeas for exchanges.

The flower posted looks like one that Emma has offered to some people...

The 'rosita' is a fuzzy name that has been used by Western distributors to refer to Yaguruma

Hi Sylvia -

Your MG looks like 'Plum Delight'.
If you could post more blooms and leaves maybe I could tell for sure.
Definitely not 'Rosita'.

Also, I have seeds you are looking for and am just sending you an email.

Sylvia,

You are right that the Plum Delight does have variegated leaves. I looked over the seeds I sent to you and that bloom doesn't come close to anything else. Also, there is the possibility that you have something that crossed.

Okay Emma, then I can write on my homepage a cross between Plum Delight (perhaps) and anything else 'unknown', but beautiful anyway *lol*
