Some Wild Flowers

This large yellow flower is not exactly a wild flower, but the flower of a pumpkin vine which was growing wild in a vacant lot.
The blue flowers of the Convolvulus gladden the heart every morning when I go to work. This is the flowering season for them and they are growing in all the vacant sites . The flowers close by 10 a.m. They close as soon as the pollination is complete so that no more energy is wasted . A lesson in economy for us.

The Convolvulus is one of the few blue wild flowers of the tropics.
