MORNING GLORIES
Not to be confused with their pesky cousin,
bindweed, these annual morning glories are a
nostalgic symbol of the cottage gardens of the
“new world”. For twining up a porch, mailbox,
fence, etc. these heat-loving beauties are indispensable.
The bloom time of morning glories
depends on temperature. Blooms will unfurl as
the temperature climbs and then close up if the
sun gets too hot. Notice how morning glories
cheerfully stay open for prolonged periods on a
cloudy day. Soak seeds 24 hours and D.S. in a
hot spot or Germ. 65o-70o and Tr. Use individual
pots. 10 cm.
FLYING SAUCER
Ipomoea purpurea
Large white funnels with sky blue veins whirl
open every morning to reveal a pale yellow centre.
Introduced in 1960.
