Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture

Ipomoea setosa, Ker. Brazilian Morning-glory. Plant very vigorous, branching, covered with stiff purplish hairs: lvs. 3-10 in. wide, cordate, angular or 3-lobed, the middle lobe abruptly contracted below into a narrow neck: peduncles many-fld., longer than the petioles; fls. 2-4 in. wide, salverform, rose-purple. Aug.-Oct. Brazil. B.R. 335.—An excellent free-growing climber for covering arbors, and especially valuable for making a dense screen because of its very leafy habit. In the latitude of New York seeds sown in the open will give flowering plants in late August. It may also be treated as a warmhouse deciduous twiner. Var. Northern Light is said to be a cross with Calonyclion aculeatum. Plant unusually vigorous, often growing 40-50 ft.: fls. lavender-pink.
