The Evening Morning Glory 5


Morning Glory

Found this Morning Glory blooming in the late evening on Universal Drive. Technically this is Hedge Bindweed (Convolvulus sepium) and is a vine that tends to choke and eventually kill whatever it's host is. Sort of like Japanese Honeysuckle. I don't know if Bindweed is an invasive like Honeysuckle but I know I grew up loving them both - long before I knew anything about wildflowers. I suppose there's some value to be placed on aesthetics and the human spirit.
