Morning Glory 'Heavenly Blue' etc.


My Morning Glory 'Heavenly Blue' (Ipomoea tricolor) has just about turned my front garden arbor into a tent. At first, I wasn't happy with the color combination of the red of the Castor Bean plants (Ricinus communis) to the right of the arbor. The weather has cooled even more and deepened the shade of red, however, so I've come to like the combo. I like too, how the Pink Muhly Grass (Muhlenbergia capillaris), to the left, echoes the ensemble.

Hi! Your Heavenly Blues look so pretty. Do you remember if that was just one plant or more? Thanks!
