Ipomoea pes-caprae
Pantropic, native to Florida on beaches and dunes
A.K.A. Beach Morning Glory. Here are some close ups of the flowers that I mentioned in this other spotting where you can see how the plant grows on the more pristine beaches and dunes of South Florida. http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/533...

Yes Maria, this pictures were taken at around 10 AM. According to what I read, the flowers open late in the evening and are at their peek early in the morning with most folding by mid afternoon.
They are beautiful; do they mainly bloom in the morning like morning glories?
