Ipomoea bombycina, often referred to as the Silky Morning Glory or Silky Ipomoea, is a perennial liana native to the seasonally dry tropical biomes of West Central and Southern Mexico. A defining feature of this species is its woody, climbing habit, which allows it to thrive as a vigorous vine in its native scrub and forest habitats.
