Delightful, But Can Be a Nuisance

I saw this beautiful Morning Glory decorating a railing on a walkway at Delta Ponds. I thought it was delightful.

Growing wild, the Morning Glory can add beauty to a landscape. But Morning Glory is a vine and can grow quickly, with roots that spread widely. All Morning Glories produce typical funnel-shaped blossoms in white, red, blue, purple and yellow. At first, I thought the Morning Glory only came in white, which is what we see around here growing wild. But I have seen gorgeous blue and purple flowers growing in flower gardens around the area. They are fine, as long as one keeps them under control. I have found that isn't always easy.

Beautifully exposed so the detail of the white flower is clearly shown. Beautiful depth of field and excellent isolation. Fine photo with lovely color, Vern. Vote.
