Glory in the Morning

Finally, at the very end of the summer, the 'heavenly blue' morning glories that I planted to grow up and around the mailbox have begun to bloom. They are just now beginning, and they have many many buds of flowers yet to come. If we are lucky and avoid a frost they could keep going for another couple of weeks. Would have been nice if they had started in August. I've noticed morning glories coming into bloom for the first time all around the city - have no idea why they are so late this year.
