As I'm starting to do more trading for the Japanese Morning Glories, I am getting interested in finding out what the names mean in English. I've heard that Ukiqumo means "Floating Cloud". Do anyone know the meaning of any of the ones below?

Yuguruma
Heian No Akatsuki
Asuka
Fiji No Momo
Dainagon
Akatsuki no Murasaki
Fujishibori
Yojro Yagauma
Akathuyki
Henka Asugao
Heian no umi

Also I know the English name for the Silk ones, but not the Japanese. Anyone know?

I think it would be nice to have a thread with the Japanese and English names listed along with the color of the blooms and the bloom size of the Japanese morning glories we all have. Maybe with a sticky to keep it near the top of the forum. I will edit this message when I get time and add the colors and sizes of the ones I know.
