 Convolvulus

My former neighbor Yulia Baumgartner, who is from Siberia, returned from her home with some seeds written in Cyrillic. I didn't know what they were but I figured if they could grow in Siberia, they'd grow here, too. After being greeted that first summer with these stunning purple flowers, we found out that they were convolvulus. We've grown them annually ever since, both the purple and red varieties. A real crowd pleaser.
