Convolvulus is a genus of approx. 250 species of beautiful flowering plants, common named bindweeds and morning glories. Morning Glories are annual or perennial herbaceous vines and (just a few species) woody shrubs.
We want to present you some of most common Convolvulus species.
Convolvulus Cneorum, also called Bush Morning Glory, is a compact, rounded, evergreen mounding shrub.
