Sharppod morningglory

Ipomoea cordatotriloba

This funnel-shaped flower is orchid with a deep purple center, 1–1 1/2 inches across and about the same length. The flower has obvious lines that divide it into 5 sections, and within each of these sections is a lighter purple triangle, the 5 forming a star within the flower. It has 2 kinds of leaves: one divided into 3 sections, the other undivided; and the leaf stems are as long as the leaves. This attractive morning glory has trailing stems that grow to 15 feet long or more (Loughmiller and Loughmiller).
