    A Morning Glory 'Kniola's Black' that is. The flower is actually a lot DARKER than the image shows. The camera just doesn't do purple very well. It's a very dark purple and you can barely see those darker lines.

    Mine are struggling a bit so far this year. Hopefully I'll get some more blooms later on.

    I have some that were grown from seed. I'm hardening them off now ready for planting into the garden. Mine are sky blue though not the rich colour yours are.

    Thanks all! :-D They are slow growing right now. I hope they speed up pretty soon though.
