I have a million questions and this seems to be the best place to put them. I want to get some height to my soon-to-be CG, and cover a brick wall, and a recent thread had some wonderful pink morning glories. I just checked my seed stash and I have Japanese Morning Glories.
Can anybody describe the differences between the JMG and the regular ones? Not only the bloom differences, but the plant habit, too. Japanese morning glories seem to be more popular on the seed exchange than the regular ones, and I wondered why.
I also wondered if morning glory seedlings in general are easy to identify, and easy to pull out. In the back of my mind, the word "invasive" is screaming at me. If they are invasive, are there other kinds of vines that grow really well but are not invasive? Something faster growing with more coverage than a hybrid Clematis, for example. Could I deadhead a morning glory so it doesn't set seed?
Do they really close in the daytime? Are there (m)any that stay open longer?
Do they come true from seed?
Is there any morning glory that would grow on the north side of a board fence?
Told you I had a lot of questions! Let's just get a morning glory discussion going here...you don't have to know the answers to all the questions I am posing, just tell us how you grow them, or even why you quit growing them.
Thanks!
Suzy
