I saw this plant looking fabulous in a large pot but could take a photo. It looks a bit wild in this photo but I would like to know what it is - lots of fab purple blooms.

Whst is this plant please

A purple one

Blue Morning Glory perhaps? Difficult to tell by the picture

Maybe this? https://www.rhs.org.uk/plants/525471/pleroma-urvilleanum/details
But it says it's not hardy below zero (H2), where did you take the photo? Maybe it's in pot to be moved inside in winter.

It's not an ipomoea/morning glory, the leaves are wrong.

Tibouchina

Thank you for the ideas - unfortunately I couldn't get closer. We are in Cornwall so most plants survive the winter.

@everywhichway - after a bit of research I agree it's Tibouchina - thank you.

Tibouchina urvilleana is a synonym of Pleroma urvilleanum, so thanks for agreeing with me too Wink

glory bush - ah plants names are funny.
