Here is another demono strain of Ipomoea nil I am growing. The fertile form has normal shaped cotyledons. The demono form(s) are infertile and can be identified by cotyledon shape (gnarly curled edge).

I grew one seed out and got lucky with seeing a demono flower form. I posted its photos in another thread but will repost here. I am growing out more plants to see the other flower forms.

This is a demono flower form for Ki Beni Hukurin Shishi Botan Ryu'uhade - Shishi Strain.

Now that is interesting! Still loving those shredded ones!

I'm wondering what hormone is present/not present to make the sterile plant cots create a whole new shape.

Having the recessive genes may have something to do with it. I am learning as I go. Thanks, Anne and Woofie.

Views of the developing fertile forms. I like the curly leaf tip. Click on the photo for a better image.

It is hard to believe that plant is Ipomoea nil.

Here are leaf photos of some of the other young plants in this strain.

Reminds me of the 'scary' trees on a very dark night and the limbs come alive and tries to grab you and you are running for your life - -

I agree Betsy .. kinda like the Trichosanthes with all those little petal tentacles waving around at night when it's opening.
