Morning glory (Ipomea purpurea)
With its purple, pink and blue trumpet flowers, sweet fragrance and heart-shaped foliage, morning glories will add a romantic touch to your garden. This climbing plant grows quickly and is therefore ideal for decorating or covering structures such as a pergola. As its name suggests, the flowers prefer to open only when the sun is not too present, especially in the morning. We can therefore see them open in the morning, then closed a few hours later. Morning glories offer abundant flowering from July until the first frosts. Moreover, their magnificent flowers are just as attractive to our eyes as they are to butterflies and hummingbirds.
