I remember "popping" the bottom of the white convolvulus as a child and
trying to make it parachute, but of course it's the wrong shape to catch air
under it.
I've only ever seen a couple of Blue Morning Glory, the last one was lat
year in a neighbours front garden, where she had it growing up a trellis and
the colour really stood out. If I see another I'll have to find the "fairy's
ice cream cone".
Incidentally, in the gap between Monica Ferris books, I'm in the middle of
reading a series of books by Ellen Byerrum called "Crimes of Fashion"
featuring a fashion reporter who gets involved in solving murders. In one of
the books a dress was made in "Morning Glory Blue".
