1-10 Project: 1 Morning Glory Blossom

1-10 Project: 1 Morning Glory Blossom
I am starting a new project, suggested by my dear friend Chrissy, and I would like to invite anyone who is interested to join in the fun! (A big welcome to Valfal (Valerie) who will be joining us! (By the way, you can join any time and catch up if I'm on the next number)

I only post about once a week these days, so it won't be stressful to keep up with me! Naturally, you can post all the pictures you want inbetween project pictures, but please wait for me to post the next in the series before you post yours. I will try to post my project picture every Monday morning. Anything goes for your subject(s) unless you choose to restrict yourself to something specific. That can be a fun challenge and you might choose to take pictures of a certain type of subject or a specific color, etc. The point is to have fun! :) Let me know in a comment that you're joining in on the fun and I'll add you to the list of people doing this project with a link so folks can see what you've come up with! :)

My first picture was really hard to pick, since you may know how often I choose to highlight one subject! But I finally decided on this glowing Morning Glory, which is growing in my wildflower section. So many flowers! It's just incredible how much these vines grow, and all over the place too! They are really amazing flowers and I've really been looking forward to them. I have a whole area devoted to them, and there will be several colors as they begin to bloom.

Known to natives of north and central Mexico by its Nahuatl name Ololiúqui (also spelled ololiuhqui or ololiuqui) [www.elsevier.es/en-revista-neurologia-english-edition--495-pdf-S2173580814001527] and by the south eastern natives as xtabentún (in Mayan), it is a perennial climbing vine with white flowers, often grown as an ornamental plant. Its flowers secrete copious amount of nectar, and the honey that bees make from it is very clear and aromatic. It also grows in Cuba, where it usually blooms from early December to February. It is considered one of the main honey plants of the island.

This plant is often used for purposes other than recreation, as natives of Mexico consider the powder produced from its seeds a tool for divination and communion with spirits. Because of the widespread use among native tribes, Colonial rules initially feared Ololiuqui and banned it introducing harsh punishments for users. [Schultes, R.E. (2014).
