Ualda's Garden
Ipomoea - Morning Glory
Genus: Ipomoea.
Species: Ipomoea "Heavenly Blue".
On Thursday 9 Apr 09 I put them in trays and covered them - I forgotten to soak the seed but they surprised me on Sunday they were already coming out.
Ipomoea is a lovely climber.
The wiry stems twine around upright support like trellis and pergolas.
The foliage is not plentiful to make an effective screening.
The flowers last for merely a day but they are born in quick succession from July to September.
Height: about 3m
Spacing: 40/50 cm
SITE&SOIL

PROPAGATION.
from March to early May
HHA tecknique - cold frame or directily outside if warm enough.
Soak the seeds for 24 hr before sowing into individual pots.
