Macro photography | Ipomoea nil | Unusual shape

in hive-185836 •  yesterday 

Hi all!

It seems to me that this flower has a very unusual shape. The flower itself does not have petals, which many other flowers have. Here we see one whole. And the flower itself looks like a jug.

There are many flowers that look like a jug. But they are all directed downwards. And this seems logical to me. Because if it rains, it will not fall on the stamens and pistils, but at the same time, bees will be able to fly there and pollinate the flower. But this flower is turned upwards. And apparently, it is not afraid of rain.

Peace and goodness to all!
