Perennial Morning Glory? Likely Tropical Vine — ID Needed

You bought a house last August, saw a vine with blue-purple flowers, stumps remain in boxes, climbed a trellis. You think it's perennial morning glory.

Reality Check

• True perennial morning glories (Ipomoea spp.) are tropical — survive only in Deep South (Zone 9+).
• Annual morning glory (I. purpurea) reseeds aggressively — looks perennial.
• If you're not Gulf Coast/SoCal, it's not a perennial Ipomoea.

What Could It Be?

Need details:

• County/state.
• Vine length.
• Leaf shape/size.
• Flower size/shape/color detail.
• Bloom start/end dates.
• Pests noticed.

Likely Candidates (If Not Annual Morning Glory)

• Clematis — woody, perennial, many blue/purple.
• Passionflower (Passiflora) — tropical, some hardy.
• Honeysuckle vine — but flowers different.
