Convolvulus is a genus of flowering plants in the family Convolvulaceae, commonly known as bindweeds or morning glories. These plants are characterized by their twining stems and funnel-shaped flowers, which can be found in various colors, including white, pink, and blue. They are often used in gardens for their ornamental value and can grow in a range of environments, from gardens to wild areas. Some species of Convolvulus are considered invasive due to their rapid growth and ability to outcompete native plants. They can spread quickly, making them challenging to control in some regions. Despite this, many gardeners appreciate their beauty and use them to enhance landscapes.
