Symbol of bright heart ...

Scientific name: Ipomoea nil
The Blue morning glory or Japanese Morning glory is an annual or short-lived perennial plant, cultivated for its highly attractive morning blooms. This plant climbs on the support provided and profusely flowers. The beautiful flowers open early in the morning and do not last long, as the sun heats up, it folds down! I have a great admiration to these flowers and love to see them smiling throughout the day, but its a dream. In the current Dussera flower show at Mysore, there were many such plants, maintained very beautifully in pots. This photograph i took in the morning of 5th October, 2011.  And today being Dussera, i dedicate this flower to my dearest friend, a symbol of bright heart like this morning glory !
