I'd on this morning glory

Recommended Posts

What shape are the leaves? It might assist the I'd if you can get a leaf pic as well.

Thanks for your reply glankus, it doesn't really have very large leaves as such, it's quite a small plant pulled from a garden bed and placed in a small pot, I was planning on growing it along a fence line, just a tad curious on variety, I can see the difficulty in getting an id as the pics could be better, I will try and post better leaf pics once it's a little bigger, :-)post-14584-0-95184400-1451211416_thumb.j

probably ipomea indica by the looks of the leaves, the flower is a bit pale but thats not unusual. especially as its a sickly plant.

a pretty shite weed. spreads vegetatively, doesn't set seed

The petals aren't too ruffled for indica??

Doesn't indica have the three pronged leaves, rather than the heart shaped ones in the pic???

They often start out heart shaped then develop more lobate shape.

I'm by no means certain on the id

if this plant was a weed & the OP is in NSW as his profile says then almost certainly the only other Ipomea sp this would be is I. cairica which it very clearly isn't.
