Convolvulus soldanella Linnaeus. Common name: Shore Bindweed, Seaside Bindweed. Phenology: May-Aug. Habitat: Beaches, dune. Distribution: This species is widely distributed around the world on beaches and coastal dunes. The NC and VA occurrences have usually been considered to represent introductions, presumably from Europe, but are also plausibly native, as the species has a wide distribution on beaches on many continents and is dispersed by seawater.
