morning glory
Dawn-opening trumpet flower
Morning glory is a climbing vine with trumpet-shaped flowers that bloom in the morning and close by afternoon.
The flowers come in vivid blues, purples, pinks, and whites: The morning glory climbed the trellis by midsummer.
Morning glory also refers to an erection upon waking—from the flower's dawn appearance.
