Beach Convolvulus (Ipomoea pes-caprae)

Alternatively known as Goat's-foot Convolvulus after the shape of the leaves, giving it also its specific name of pes-caprae.
This is a ground-cover of beach fore-dunes, so it must be quite tolerant of salt spray.
The flowers are about 8 or 9 cm across.


other sizes: small medium original auto

So pretty - I seem to remember something similar on the S.African beaches. V
