The bright red tubular flowers are about one inch long with protruding white stamens. They stay open all day to attract hummingbirds, unlike other morning glories.

AuthorI am Marilyn Phillips, a native of England, whose love of nature and the outdoors from childhood brought me by a circuitous route to Crested Butte, Colorado in 1993 and 16 years later to northern New Mexico. My exploration of the many trails in these areas, my interest in wildflowers and photography, and career in computer system design came together in this creation.
