Morning Glory Flying Saucers - Ontario Seed Company
Ipomoea tricolor
Fast growing twining vines with heart-shaped leaves and large flowers marbled with white and purple-blue markings. Absolutely stunning!
Annual
Approx. 30 seeds/pkt
How to Grow
Soak seed overnight before sowing directly in the garden in mid to late May, 6mm (1/4") deep and 7.5cm (3") apart. Thin to 15cm (6") apart when vines are 7.5 (3") tall. Morning Glories don't transplant well so there is no real advantage to starting earlier indoors. Vines may grow up to 4m (13') long. Prefers moist, well drained soil. In naturally rich soil, fertilize if you notice a lack of vigour or poor foliage quality. In poor soils, vines benefit from frequent, dilute fertilizer applications. Avoid high nitrogen fertilizers as this leads to rampant vegetative growth at the expense of flowering.
