I can't believe it! I ordered via the internet and subsequently planted 10
Calystegia Pink Sensation. They've grown lovely and have finally flowered
today ... only, they're not calystegia, they're convovulus. Now I'm stuck
with tons and tons of bindweed.

I'm going to complain to the company in question and no doubt I'll get a
refund, but in the meantime I have a big problem to deal with. Great!



Are you sure it's not Calystegia which is known as False Bindweed and is in
the family Convolvulaceae?
It's often confused with true bindweed and can, in the right place, act in
the same way. Best grown in pots.
Actually bindweed has beautiful flowers if you think about it, especially
the little pink one covering my allotment! :-(
