Morning glories are beautiful even as their beauty is short-lived. When the sun is up and hot, they close up until the next day.
The white sparkles on the flower are the pollen... we watched the bees busily working to harvest it. For some reason it seems to shimmer and sparkle.
I love the rich deep purple color of this flower. I have smaller blue morning glories at home...and I do enjoy them... but these are spectacular!
Such a lot of beauty and detail wrapped up in an interesting package.
If anyone knows what kind of morning glories these are... I would love to hear about it in the comments.
Thank you for visiting.
