morning glories

Trumpet-shaped climbing vines

Morning glories are climbing vines with trumpet-shaped flowers that bloom in the morning and close by afternoon.

The flowers come in vibrant blues, purples, pinks, and whites.

They grow quickly and can cover fences or trellises in a single season: The morning glories had taken over the whole back fence.

Some species contain psychoactive compounds.
