Plant Notes:Small White Morning Glory is a native annual herbaceous twining vine in the Morning Glory family (Convolvulaceae). It is found throughout Alabama. Small White Morning Glory occurs along rivers and streams, in cultivated fields, on roadsides, and in disturbed habitats. It is a twining annual vine with a tap root. The vines can grow up to 7 feet in length. The stems are green or purplish in color and glabrous or slightly pubescent with scattered hairs. The leaves are alternate, petiolate, cordate or 3-lobed, with entire margins. The leaves often have a narrow purple margin. Flowers are solitary or in 3-5 flowered cymes from the axils of the leaves. The individual flowers have 5 ovate to lanceolate sepals. The sepals are thick, green in color, with hairs along their margins. The corolla is campanulate with 5 shallow lobes. The flower is small (about 1 inch in total length), and white in color. The fruit is a globose capsule that is pubescent on its top. Small White Morning Glory is a larval host plant for the Common Plume Moth (Emmelina monodictyla). Occasional plants with lavender colored flowers represent hybrids with Tie Vine (Ipomoea cordatotriloba Dennstaedt). The hybrid (Ipomoea ×leucantha Jacquin) is common on some roadsides and other disturbed areas where both parents grow.--A. Diamond
