The Cutleaf Morning Glory is a vine that has unusual and very decorative, palmate, deeply lobed leaves with toothed and wavy margins. It has large, white flowers with pink or red throats. The flowers bloom in the afternoon, unlike many morning glories which open their flowers in the morning. It is also called wood-rose because the brown seed capsules have 5 large sepals and resemble rose flowers that are made from wood. This large, fast growing vine is native to the southeastern U.S. and the Caribbean region. It is grown as an ornamental plant and is useful to cover walls and trellises. It is also used as a condiment and as a medicine. The underground tubers are edible. It has an almond taste and is used to flavor foods and medicines. It is easy to grow and is drought resistant.
