organichigh Posted February 25, 2006 Maybe its an obvious Q. but from the little flower/vine pic is this a morning glory? Just curious as its growing rampently in many areas I live near. This fella was from the hinterland area, back of Sunsine Hoax..... I have a couple I. Violacea just sprouted, so if they are anything like this wild vine I see everywhere then I better be careful where its planted.. The other pic is a plant from seed I got from the free seedring.. I however lost its name and its growing like crazy in my supposed vegi garden.. The plant in Q.s is the one with heart shaped leaves creeping over everything.. Thanks hippy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Benzito Posted February 25, 2006 (edited) It's Ipomoea Indica, a common weed throughout much of Australia. Not employed as a psychoactive by anyone, that I am aware of. I think that was everyone's first excited find, only to have their hopes dashed. I know I thought I'd found the real thing. :D edit: Oh yeah, and I'm not sure what the plant is in the 2nd pic.

ajna Posted February 25, 2006 that second one does look like hawaiian baby woodrose to me, with the thicker whitish vine. am i wrong? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
organichigh Posted February 25, 2006 Cool! Thanks fellas~! Nah the second one can't be HBW... I've got one near this plant and its definetly not one.. It grows like a mad cat and im thinking of moving it because of this reason... Anyway I guess time will tell............... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
organichigh Posted March 1, 2006 The other pic is a plant from seed I got from the free seedring.. I however lost its name and its growing like crazy in my supposed vegi garden.. The plant in Q.s is the one with heart shaped leaves creeping over everything.. This plant has just flowered! untitled.bmp Any ideas now? untitled.bmp untitled.bmp Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Benzito Posted March 1, 2006 Uuuuh, isn't that the same flower as the original, first pic? It's an Ipomoea, probably Indica, but maybe it's the other type that looks like that.... What are they called, someone help me? There are 2 types with that flower! Either way, not much use for neo-shamanism. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
organichigh Posted March 1, 2006 Not the same flower... Diferent plant, flower colour and leaf.. It may be a Violacea... I have a small seedling just about to get its true leaves so i will be able to tell if it is.. But I am positive I got the seed from the free seed ring, so I would assume its useful for something.. Any how its growing a little too well for its position, so I guess I'll be moving it whatever it is... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
elzar Posted April 10, 2006 http://www.poporo.ne.jp/~kondoh/asagao/index.html this page i found in my random browsing may be of some help for you all. A little late but there are a few good pics as reference. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Francois le Danque Posted April 11, 2006 Yeah i found those a few weeks ago and asked about why they weren't producing seeds...seems they "rarely set seed in this country". bummer . However i found most sources told me that they were Ipomoea Purpurea. try google image searching it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ballzac Posted April 11, 2006 (edited) They're not I. Purpurea, as they generally have the fork shaped flowers rather than hearts. If it's from the seed ring then it would be I. Tricolor "west indies" variety. It could be I. Indica, I don't know much about that species, but I think it also has the forked leaves, so maybe not. Most people use the name Violacea and tricolor as interchangeable, but I'm still trying to figure out if they really ARE. If violacea isn't tricolor then I don't know what it is. I reckon you've got "west indies" (vigorous violacea), and that would make sense if you got it from the seed ring. -Zac Edit:Doing a quick google image search on purpurea, a lot of the pictures have heart-shaped flowers. Not that I'm saying that's an authority on the issue, but there's obviously some...actually a lot of confusion on the various species' of Ipomoea. Maybe what I call purpurea is actually indica.

Francois le Danque Posted April 11, 2006 well that didn't help to clarify matters did it? dammit i'm confused now. someone knowledgeable in this area better come in here and tell us what's what. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rev Posted April 11, 2006 (edited) whatver you have if its going rampant then kill it now if its no use then get rid of it before it gets away from you rampant rooting species are not good for anyone but themselves, especialy vines get some seed of HBWR fractal or FNQ strain, some I violacea 'Heavenly blue', and some Rivea corymbosa almost everything else is junk (read nauseating, not psychoactive and or strongly laxative) or a weed. these 3 can be a weed too but in a much more limited zone than the others. if you live in a harsh climate keep MG H blue as its an annual plant and try I. muellerii as its a vigorous native annual vine that also flowers in the first season and seems promising Edited April 11, 2006 by Rev Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
