Excellent(!) taxonomic reference photo that clearly shows the seedpod pedicel remaining fully erect and the small(but taxonomically important) flange-like wings extending off of the top of the pedicel just below the base of the sepals...this type of flange is not present on the seedpod pedicel of Ipomoea coccinea as shown here

The closeup presented here which is clearly focused on important details helps to maintain the taxonomic accuracy and integrity of the PlantFiles as a dependable reference.

Thanks Arlan(!)

Ron
