Morning Glories 2009 #01

I had one bloom today, the lable said blue purple. I have other mg's with buds so I need to water them with the bloom booster.

Joseph.. Purewhite is about to....

Pretty bloom Helena

Eager to see the pure white bloom Debra

Helena - Is that one an I. purpurea? Looks like the Purple Flaked one I grew.

Any photo of the bloom today, Debra?

Big excitement here today! First beautiful bloom from the seeds you sent me Becky- it's Shibori Purple x Gray Lady.

This one must have bloomed yesterday, and is still hanging on. It's labeled Dark Purple No ID.

Syrumani, your photos and blooms are lovely!

Cathy

Cathy, you have some very pretty plants there! The Grey Lady cross has nice even coloration and the picotee is very nice too.

Joseph

I've been enjoying everyones pretty blooms! Thanks Jackie, Becky I had to look up the name again bluish purple, Aomuraskizyouhantenshibori. Is that the longes name for a mg? Seeds are from Emma, it's still a bit cool here my plants were outside during the cold spell and the leaves got a bit of damage. Now hope I can take better pictures when they bloom.

Thanks Joseph!

This morning's bloom, but not a very good picture. I think there will be a couple of other blooms on other seedlings tomorrow! I'll be out at sunrise with the camera...

Becky, this is another one from the batch of seeds you sent, I think it was labeled Dark Pink Picotee.

Becky, while organizing my seeds a few weeks ago, I found some MG seeds that came from the BF & hummingbird seed swap you did a couple winters ago, and tried to spout them. No luck on the first batch, but the second batch I soaked in some water with H2O and I have sprouts! I think they were from bluespiral.

Here's a picture of a bud on a KMG plant, hoping for something wonderful!

I wasn't going to post b/c the bloom opened damaged and notvery good pics but was surprised, it's still very cool mornings here.

Beckys Rabenda x Pres. Bush

Almost missed this bloom, took pic late afternoon of Beckys Porcelain.

Too cool to open completely, Pink surprise thought it was supposed to be from Plum Surprise.

Bluish purple, A...................................................

helena - the last photo of the aosibori is very nice...almost all blue with almost no purple...(!)

Gorgeous blooms Helena.

Nice flower photos everyone! I hope my indoor crop starts making some more and soon!

Thanks all, the cold weather has affected the blooms to be very small but I guess it'll get better when it warms up.

This is seed from 3rd bloom from Plum Surprise, didn't get seeds from 1st or 2nd bloom.

I wanted to see if some of what I grew last year would come true.

More prertty blooms Helena.

I have seed pod on the unidentified pink vine.. I am pretty sure it is berry ice.. I am missing a seed ot of the package anyway.. so, two seed pods total from winter grow out.. one on SOH and one on "berry ice"

Antoinette I love this beauty:

helenah, your Plum Surprise is smashing! This picture is so cool http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/fp.php?pid=6423042

I've been taking pictures each morning for the last couple of weeks and am finally getting around to posting some. Here are a couple from the same vine, which is tagged as Hamaginga. I have very naughty blue jays that pulled the plant tags out of 5 or 6 of my 16 pots of JMGs, the very first afternoon I set them outside the lanai for some sunshine and fresh air. I hoped I had put them back in the right pots, but it looks like I didn't!

Dany, maybe this could be the seeds I got from you, labeled as Very Light Blue?

Cathy

Here are three more pics from the same plant. They were taken first thing in the morning, I think I need to try and take some just a little bit later, when it's brighter outside.

Same flower, a little closer

The third bloom, yesterday morning.

This one is labeled Shibori Purple x Grey Lady, one of the crosses Becky sent.

Dark Purple NOID from Becky

Another view, showing the split petal

The same flower, later in the morning, after we had a light misting of rain.

This one is from this morning, my favorite one!
The plant is tiny, only about 5" tall. There were three or four seedlings that I planted out, and only one survived the slugs. :-(
It is labeled Kikyo x Ten Ten

Seedlings of the Hatsu Arashi seeds I got from Ebay a few weeks ago.

Looking good!

These two plants are labeled as Very Light blue from Dany. I think the blue jays struck again...

Blue Asago Willow, can't remember the rest of the tag.

Tagged as Kohkan, showing two very different plants.

The one on the right has a beautiful flower, even if it is a little beat up.

The pink one on the left has had two flowers that have never fully opened up. Maybe next time!

Cathy - This is one looks like it is probably Kohkan. Too bad it didn't open. Keep an eye on this vine! It has variegated leaves and beautiful large blooms ... or at least it should. One of my favorites! They ALL look great! Exciting to see you've got so many growing and blooming!
