"Dainichi" Morning Glory Bright is the name for this Hot pink with white center Morning Glory, beautiful blooms reaching up to six inches inches or more in diameter. A proflic bloomer and real eye catcher with its bright pink blooms a shimmering silver green foliage.

So far with the blooms I have seen there is no white on the edges the pink goes all the way to the edge.
