Curtis describes the Convolvulus Tricolor or bindweed thus "A very pretty annual which is a native of Spain, Portugal and Sicily which is very commonly cultivated in gardens. The most usual colors of the blossoms are blue, white and yellow, hence the name of tricolor, but there are other variations. The whole plant in general is hairy and is proagated by seeds which should be sown on the flower borders in the spring, where the plants are to remain. They require no other care than to be thinned and weeded. Pentandria Monogynia. Botanical art print #92
