How to Grow:
Soak seeds overnight to improve germination. Sow directly into the ground in mid to late May, 1/4 inch (6 mm) deep and 3 inches (7.5 cm) apart. Thin to 6 inches (15 cm) when vines are 3 inches (7.5 cm) tall. These plants thrive in well-drained, moist soil, but avoid high-nitrogen fertilizers which promote foliage over flowers. Germination takes about 2 weeks.
This reliable variety of morning glory is perfect for gardeners who want to create a colorful and nostalgic display. Easy to grow, they will beautify your outdoor spaces all summer long.
