When my grandmother moved to Cottonwood Arizona, she immediately set to making the yard at her home as lovely and floriferous as her home in Tempe had been. One of the most show-stopping additions was a patch of 'Heavenly Blue' morning glory near the big gate. (Never mind the fact that morning glories are illegal in Arizona. lol. Little things like that never stopped Grandma from doing anything that she wanted to.) I've spent the last twenty or so years trying to grow them here. With absolutely no success. *sigh*
Until this year!
'Heavenly Blue'
'Flying Saucers'
They've been blooming for a few days, but it's hard to get a good photo as each flower only lasts for a few hours. Aren't they lovely? A beautiful tribute to Mable Alice Jenkins Clow, if you ask me.
And BTW, morning glories are legal in Utah. ;)
