Pictures are here on my flicker. It looks like a morning glory flower but it is a stalk NOT a vine. The flowers and leaves are much larger than a morning glory, it continually blooms, and the blooms start to fade late morning early afternoon it attracts lots of bees but not butterflies.

Welcome, amymi.
I could not see your pictures. But there are bush type morning glories, Ipomoea leptophylla. You can try searching for that and see if it fits your plant.
Good luck! It sounds lovely.

That is wonderful!Now that I can see it, it is not Ipomoea leptophylla. And I do not think it is a brug either. My brug leaves are not shaped like that at all. Mine are more a standard leaf oval with a single point on the end, no wings or arrowhead shape.
This will take research!

It is not a angel trumpet the growth habits are totally different this plant is everblooming angel trumpet I believe doesn't continually produce new blooms everyday :) it's not vine like at all so it's not like any morning glory bush I've seen :)
