        According to "Picture This" it is Convolvulus Tricolour, also known as Morning Glory, also known as Bindweed!

          Wiseowl...I don't think this is your plant.
          I would love to see more pics to see size, leaves etc.

          I know this as Ipomoea tricolor...common name Morning Glory.
          It is a climbing vine.
          Do leaves etc match? I suspect not!

              Many thanks wiseowl. New pics helped a lot.

              Apologies Jocko and "Picture this"
              I should have checked this out.

              I stupidly followed the common name Morning Glory...big mistake!

              I have never come across it before.
              But it checks out to be exactly right.
              Convolvulus Tricolor..common name Dwarf morning glory.

              Quote wiki....
              "Convolvulus tricolor is a species of flowering plant in the family Convolvulaceae, native to Mediterranean Europe. Common names include dwarf morning-glory, tricolour convolvulus, and belle de jour."

                    I've never seen it growing wild, I'd say its a garden plant, I remember growing it once.
                    Its not like bindweed.

                      I have it wild and cultivated in several forms and the leaves look wrong to me.

                        Bear in mind that weather in UK is not the same as hot areas.

                        Looking more.
                        Pic on wiki looks to be a match with the hairy stems.
                        Alternate leaves look similar to wiseowls one.

                        Not sure how much further i can take this.

                        Quote from link above...

                        "Noteworthy Characteristics

                        Convolvulus tricolor is native to the Mediterranean region. It is a low-growing, non-trailing, bushy annual that rises to 16” tall and as wide on branching stems clad with lanceolate medium green leaves. It is commonly called dwarf morning glory because of the similarity of its tri-colored flowers to those of morning glory (Ipomoea tricolor). Each flower forms a flared trumpet (to 2” wide) featuring blue petals with a white throat and yellow center. Flowers last one day, but bloom in succession over a long late spring to late summer bloom period."
