    Blue flowers on my balcony

    They are so beautiful this year, I thought I had to share. They only bloom one day. In the evening they get violet and shrink. But there are new ones every morning:



    They are ranking: (the bronze bell on the left is a souvenir from Arizona

    They are beautiful . It is just the beginning of Spring here so all of the flowers should start to come out soon.

    Oh Barbara, your blue flowers are beautiful!! I'd love to sit there on your balcony and just enjoy it. Take a bottle of wine, or ..... and ask Siegmar to come out there to sit and enjoy it with you! I love your balcony - wish I was there!

    They are beautiful Barbara! They look to be what we call "Morning Glories" - but I am not sure...not very good with plant identification

  10. They do look like morning glories. Those always make me think of my grandparents who grew them. Such an intense and gorgeous blue!

    Yes, lovely! I'm used to smaller, paler Morning Glories. What do you feed them to make them so lovely?

    Those are such a beautiful shade of blue, Barbara. They remind me of my honeymoon in Hawaii where I saw those growing wild all along the side of the roads. I've never seen that color quite as bright, until now!
