When I decided to plant morning glory seeds mid-June by a couple empty trellises in the back yard, Gary was skeptical, since it's a fairly shady back there. Well, they sprouted and grew... granted... slower than they might have, had they had the requisite "full-sun" recommended on the seed packet. Fortunately we haven't had a frost yet. In fact, we've been having warmer than average temperatures for the past couple weeks. Lo and behold, over the weekend they bloomed! Better late than never.
"Keep it simple."
