The morning glory that sleeps in? Alamo Vine - the noon-blooming mystery

Ipomoea sinuata - Alamo Vine

🌞 The morning glory that sleeps in? Alamo Vine - the noon-blooming mystery
  • 💮 Ipomoea sinuata - Alamo Vine or Woodrose isn't your average morning glory.
  • 💮It's a fast-growing, very fine vine with feathery, soft-textured leaves that look like they belong in a fairytale.
  • 💮 And its white pretty blooms? They're a little rebellious! Opening around noon instead of morning, then closing again before sunset.
  • 💮 Perfect for trellises, fences, or even a container if you want a vine with personality. Attracts butterflies and bees.
  • 💮 It's fast, it's different, and it's ready to cover a small fence or trellis.
