These species are primarily herbaceous vines, but also include trees, shrubs and herbs. The tubers of several species are edible, the best known of which is the sweet potato.
Colin PurringtonNice patch of dodder (Cuscuta sp.) at the restored meadow in the Crum Woods (Swarthmore College). No flowers yet so species ID is hopeless. #swarthmore #dodder #parasite #parasitic #botany #plants #cuscuta #nature #vines #convolvulaceae #ricohgriiix
Dodder bursting out of a host stem to flower. They don't usually reside inside other plants so this was worth a pic. Normally they just wrap around another plant and send in root-like haustoria to suck the juices out, like the situation you can see on the left. #cuscuta #dodder #convolvulaceae #parasitic #parasite #plants #botany #biology
Josep GestiAquests "cabells" florits són d'una planta (Cuscuta approximata) que paràsita altres plantes (les fulles verdes que apareixen a sota).
A Catalunya ha estat observada sobretot a les terres interiors i pirinenques, i de manera molt més escassa a la resta del territori. Recentment trobada a les Guilleries.

The morning glory on ivy combo is gonna work so well: the rather young morning glory in a pot near an ivy covered wall has already climbed to nearly 2 m. Come springtime, and I will sow most of my morning glory seeds under the ivy. 😍

I am also a big fan of this plant. 😻
This year I found out that although the plants will die away during the winter, their seeds are frost hardy (at least down to −6°C). So come the spring and I will sow a lot of morning glories at the foot of a long ivy covered wall in my garden, in the hope that the glories will use the ivy as kind of a live trellis support and make the ivy more colourful during the summer. And if this works, I hope the seeds will germinate the year after and perpetuate the cycle.
Anyone here who have tried this?
