The Story
These quick-growing, heirloom morning glories climb and ramble, decorating with their pretty heart-shaped leaves and blossoms along the way. Flowers open to greet the day and stay open until mid-day or all day if it is cloudy. Each day a new set of blossoms form, which gives them an ever-changing allure and reminds us to enjoy the moment. Grown as an annual, although perennial in USDA zones 10 and warmer. Deer resistant. Caution: Parts of this plant are toxic if ingested.
When to Sow Outside: RECOMMENDED. 1 to 2 weeks after your average last frost date. Plants started too early outside will end up less vigorous than plants started when warmer.
When to Start Inside: 4 to 6 weeks before transplanting outside. Sow into a biodegradable pot that can be directly planted in the ground to avoid disturbing roots.
Days to Emerge: 5–15 Days
Seed Depth: ½"
Seed Spacing: A group of 3 seeds every 6"–12"
Thinning: When 2" tall, thin to 1 every 6"–12"
