Dear All,
I just joined Jref today and wanted to say hi. I live in Wilmington, Delaware, USA. I am slowly learning to navigate around the web site and look forward to learning much about Japan. I am an avid gardener, and have recently enjoyed the beauty of many of the varieties of morning glory vines that have been developed in Japan. I hope I will meet other gardeners through this web site to exchange ideas and maybe garden seeds too. I will try to post photographs of flowers I grew over the past year or two.

Hi Joseph, Welcome To Jref !!

Had a good time talking with you in chat last night. I hope there are some members in Japan interested in flowers. It would be nice to have posts of pictures of flowers and information on them. Hope you find enough here to keep you interested and posting for a while.

Frank

Thank you

Hi Frank and ullvarg, thank you for the welcome!
Is there a FAQ where I could learn where to post my garden pictures and have a garden discussion? Any ideas if there aren't answers in a FAQ?
Have a great day!
Joseph
The attachment is a picture of Blue Silk Japanese Morning Glory.

Here is Yaguruma, one of my favorites. Such intense red color!

I thought I would post a couple more images here.
This picture is of Maisugata, another lovely flowering vine with vivid deep blue color.

This picture is of Seiun, really big flowers.

This flower is Star of India, very nicely defined star early in the season.

Lastly, this is a flower of Mount Fuji Pale Purple. I don't know if that is the exact common name for it, but it has very nice evenly distributed color in the flower.
