Stars in lawn ...

Scientific name: Evolvulus nummularius
Roundleaf bindweed is an annual herb, with creeping stems and small rounded leaves alternatively arranged. The small white flowers are formed 1-2 per axil and are 7-88 mm across. In my childhood i have seen them profusely growing around my home and adjoining areas with innumerable star like white flowers. We used to pick them with other small and tiny flowers to play. Recently while visiting my home, i had the nostalgic feeling after seeing them flowered in front of my home and i photographed them on 18th December, 2011.
