A reply: "The plant is Ipomoea sagittifolia (syn. Ipomoea marginata, Ipomoea sepiaria) and all parts in the photos supplied are consistent for Ipomoea sagittifolia, even though the photos of the sepals could be clearer, the structure and verruculose surface is visible. The description provided does not coincide with what is visible in the photos regarding the length of the petioles. The description provided gives a length of from 5cm-11.5cm for mature. What I see in the photos supplied in much more consistent with the official descriptions and treatments which state a petiole length of from 1 to 4 cm... regards, Ron"
