Ivy-Leafed Morning Glory
Ipomoea hederacea
Family: Convolvulaceae (Morning Glory)
According to The Audubon Society Field Guide to North American Wildflowers, this was imported from tropical America. It blooms blue in the morning then turns pink-purple later in the day. That would explain why the ones that came up this year in my yard were blue!
My Grandmother had morning glories come up from seed every year on her Vermont porch, so any type of morning glory reminds me of her! She would tie strings and trail them up to the roof.
