September has arrived!
Years ago I came across
this lovely fence . . .
Where Morning Glory vines were twining
their way in and out among the
ornamental fleur de lys.
Delicate blue bell shaped flowers
opened to the morning sun,
opened to the morning sun,
And peeked from within the mass
of heart shaped leaves.
of heart shaped leaves.
Morning Glory ~ September Birth Flower
Morning Glory flowers are a symbol of affection.
They open in the morning light, and curl shut by evening.
Blue, the most common color of Morning Glories,
represents trust, responsibility, honor, and loyalty.
