Morning Glory Tall Mix Color
Morning Glory Tall Mix Color
Seeds can easily be sown outside directly after the frost but, for earliest blooming, start Mixed Colors morning glory seeds indoors 6-8 weeks prior and transplant once there are two sets of true leaves.
Morning glory seeds are quick to germinate and then harden off seedlings for a week or two before transplanting with early growth and trellis support. Without climbing support, Mixed Colors morning glories will mound and spread horizontally rather than vertically.
Morning glories have a variable growth habit dependent on trellis support. With early support, plants can vine as high as 60-120" tall bursting with 2" trumpet-shaped blooms. Without trellis support, plants will only mound 12-15" tall and spreading their blooms 36-60" wide.
Plants can just as easily vine and climb indoors as they can outdoors. Plant 2-3 Mixed Color morning glory seeds ¼" deep and 12-36" apart (depending on desired growth habit) in average, consistently moist, and well-drained soil in full sun.
Mixed Colors morning glory seeds are native to Mexico and South America and tolerant of gardens in similar climates prone to heat, drought, and poor soils. Morning Glory has no serious pests but monitor for spider mites, especially in dry weather.
Mixed Colors morning glory seeds mature in 112 days bursting with 2" trumpet-shaped blooms in a seasonal mix of blue, purple, fuchsia, and rose.
