RE: Silver Bush and Blue Rock Bindweed - two plants you can use in the Garden

in #convolvulus6 years ago

Plants from the Convolvulus genus are hardy annual or hardy perennial vines.
They have heart shaped leaves, some varieties flower but for one day, with trumpet flowers (can be blue, white, pink or purple).
Many gardeners consider most Convolvulus plants to be weeds. Though some species of Convolvulus such as Silverbush and Dwarf morning glory are grown.

Also known as Convolvulus mauritanicus, this tender rock bindweed is a native of north Africa and a popular trailing plant for hanging baskets and containers. It’s also suitable for growing over walls and in rock gardens, where the stems could bake on the stones and root wherever they touched the soil. By late summer the bushy plants are smothered in clear, soft blue trumpets, attracting a wealth of pollinating insects. The Royal Horticultural Society has given it its prestigious Award of Garden Merit (AGM).
