Seeds took off well indoors in April. Planted to a huge pot and they're growing, 4+' healthy, green, cool foliage. But no blooms yet...
I've tried to grow 5 different YELLOW morning glories and tho most vines have thrived, not 1 of them have bloomed.

:-((

Any thoughts/suggestions here are welcomely appreciated!

Very easy to grow, the seeds do not need to be nicked and can be directly sown after the last frost. The vine will quickly cover any fence or trellis with medium-sized, bright green grape-like leaves. Clusters of buds form after the vine begins to mature, with the yellow trumpets lasting from morning until well after nightfall. Flowers are about the same size or a little bit larger than 'Orange Noah' or 'Scarlet Star' morning glories. I've had black swallowtail butterflies and lots of bees frequenting them. A "must have" for the morning glory collector. :-)
