| Varieties Available | Ipomoea Nil | Heian (Ancient Kyoto) |
Heian no Sora, or The Sky of the Heian Era, is not an official strain of the original Heian series. However it was naturally crossed with a nearby variety Sazanami #1 / Ripples on the Beach. The resulting large sturdy sky blue discs of earthly beauty are hard to ignore even from a distance.
