説明 | Legend has it this morning glory fell in love with a beautiful starfish, but after only one night together, the starfish was washed back out to sea. Morning glory missed her starfish so much she manifested it's likeness in her petals and still waits patiently for the starfish to return. Well, at least that's what I imagine when I see Ipomoea pes-caprae blooming on a beautiful sandy beach. Called railroad vine morning glory for it's long vines, it is one of the most important beach pioneer species and a great beach and dune stabilizer. It is pantropical as the floating seeds travel the oceans of the world. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ipomoea_pes-caprae |
