The Fountain of the Heian Era

The Fountain of the Heian Era / Heian no Izumi Ipomoea Nil|  Varieties Available  |  Ipomoea Nil  |  Heian (Ancient Kyoto)  |

      Heian no Izumi, or The Fountain of the Heian Era, blooms just like a fountain of massive lavender silk beauty. The bloom is so big it sometimes has difficulty opening into a fully round bloom, so its unique cascading petals give it a distinctly far-eastern appearance. As with the other Heian cultivars, the Fountain of the Heian Era produces few seeds due to its difficulty fully closing and creating seeds.
