I saw this at the beach this week and I’m still learning southern flowers. A daunting task as just about every kind of flowering plant thrives here. This looks a lot like a beach morning glory but my garden books says they are pink. Does anyone know what this is?
Beautiful photo!

The leaves look like mangrove? So… my (uneducated) guess is morning mangrove glory!! π

I think it could be a blue wild Petunia.

Pat, it reminds me of both a morning glory and a periwinkle. Lovely!

Thanks, Wendy. This flower was about 3-4 inches across. Do periwinkles get that big?

I would have guessed morning glory too. I hope someone has the answer. π
