Fuji No Momo (Peach of Mt Fuji)

Fuji No Momo (Peach of Mt. Fuji) has given me a suprise this morning. It has two very beautiful pink and white margined flowers although they are not as big as in the description on the seed packet which are from Japan. It may due to the warm weather here.

Fuji No Momo is the modern Japanese Morning Glory which is having "Youjiro" large flowers. Japanese name is Youjiro Asagao (ようじろあさがお).

It is having retracted, dragonfly and variegated leaves with a long central lobe.

First Morning Glory



My love for morning glory started when I bought this Japanese Morning Glory from a nursery near by my house. However, I don't have any name for it.

She is just gorgeous as every day she will greet the morning sun with more than a dozen of flowers. She is definately a prolific bloomer. She is also very attractive even without flowers as the vines are having nice variegated leaves.
