So dramatic!

Poor things. Every sunny afternoon they seem to droop.

Did you know that some plants will do this even if they have enough water?
When they wilt they are drawing water back into the roots to conserve it, so it doesn't evaporate.
Pretty neat!

I think that must be the case with these morning glories. They recover overnight even if I don't water them.
