Morning Glory (Hanging, Group, Flowers) (Ipomoea purpurea)
Morning Glory (Hanging, Group, Flowers) (Ipomoea purpurea)
Morning Glory (Ipomoea purpurea) in a hanging group form with flowers is characterized by multiple slender vines cascading downward from an elevated origin, forming a layered curtain of foliage and blooms. The stems are flexible and elongate, trailing freely rather than twining, with leaves arranged alternately along their length. Leaves are typically heart-shaped and moderately spaced, allowing light to reach developing flowers.
In this expression, flowering is active and abundant, with funnel-shaped blossoms appearing along the hanging stems and opening sequentially. Ipomoea purpurea is native to tropical and subtropical regions of the Americas, where it commonly occupies forest edges, slopes, and disturbed sites. The hanging group habit reflects the species’ ability to exploit gravity-assisted growth when support structures are absent. This form highlights the plant’s reproductive vigor, efficient seed production, and capacity to maintain flowering while growing in a non-climbing, pendulous orientation.
Morning Glory (Hanging, Group, Flowers) has a typical overall vine length/height between 6’-15’ (1.83-4.57 m) and spread of 2’-6’ (.61-1.83 m). The leaf width is between 2”-5” (5-12.7 cm).
