Morning glory.

These morning glories grow next to my compost heap, turning it into a small flower bed.

A pair of morning glory flowers, they almost seem to be hugging each other.




The white heart of the flower.




The one on the left seems almost translucent.




Come sunset they furl their petals and go to sleep. Come sunrise tomorrow, they unfurl and welcome the sun.

I love flowers. These are beautiful colours.

Definitely beautiful colours, Phillip, and beautiful photos. You are sure mastering that new camera well, and getting so much detail.
We have a weed that looks like white morning glory, and I have a battle with it every year when it tries to choke off one of my favourite shrubs.
