Glorious flowers!


The Morning Glory flowers climbing up the wall are as glorious as their name suggests.  They are short-lived flowers - the flower on the left (above) came out this morning and the one on the right was from yesterday.

If it is a warm day or cold night then often they are completely over by the end of just one day and the colour changes completely from bright blue to pink and purple.



Those of you who follow Maggie's blog (FarmersWifeDaybyDay) will already have seen her lovely photos of another glorious plant in Mum's garden, the Amaryllis Belladonna (colloquially, 'Naked Lady').


Individually the flowers are beautiful..


But they are most striking when viewed as a clump on thie dark stems.
