| IMG_5891 [Ipomoea purpurea] |
Ipomoea purpurea is native to Mexico and Central America
but it has been naturalized in a plethora of tropical and subtropical climates
where it is cultivated for its attractive funnel-shaped flowers.
They usually come in blue, purple, pink or white.
The plant entwines itself around whatever it finds available and grows to a height of 2–3m.
I don’t usually shoot cultivated, ornamental flowers
but I found this one irresistible,
so I pressed the trigger.
Photographed in a residential area on Mt. Vardousia
at a height of 1000m.
