Are variated Morning Glory leaves normal? When will it bloom?

I was just wondering if morning glory leave are normally variated with green and yellow or are they screaming out to me for help? and how long till it blooms? the vines are growing well but I've yet to see flowers appear.

Are variated Morning Glory leaves normal? When will it bloom?
variated? do you mean two- toned? not usually as far as i know ( no varieties ive grown or read about) - they should be growing now in warm climates (i cant stop mine in SF bay area CA- i have to keep clipping to control their growth) in cooler climates i would suggest waiting for warmer sun and then they should reach the sky. Wtare moderately after they are 3 in and if foliage appears, but no flowers stop watering for a bit. Too much water may be why the plant has a light two toned affect... or it could be not enough water. Chances are likely that its the former as morning glorys are hardy take watering well and should be a breeze to grow---- are they in full sun? They need to be
Reply:he's right, the varigation is completely normal, and they should bloom every morning and close by the time it starts getting hot.
Reply:i had morning glories last yr called "tye dye"


the leaves were varegiated and the blooms were purple with white splashed on the blooms





no 2 were alike and i loved them





for regular old boring morning glories most have just green leaves but the newer colors/combinations seem to have a tendancy to have varegiated leaves





depending on when you planted them give them sometimes up to 2 mos before seeing flowers...at 1st you wont see very many but as the plant gets bigger they will start showing up...in the early morning move the leaves and look underneath for blooms...it always seems that the 1st few are hidden but once the plant is all over the place so will the blooms...once the heat hits them that is it for the bloom but the next day new ones will bloom
Reply:they are calling you get ready.
Reply:Don't water them too often. That makes the vines grow fast, but inhibits the flowers from blooming. You might be overwatering them.
Reply:I planted Morning Glory from seed in early March and I'm just now starting to get flowers. The leaves on mine are variegated as well so I don't think that's a problem. I'm getting more and more flowers every morning.

Has anyone ever planted Morning Glory seeds before?

I just started plating Morning Glory seeds. This is my first time doing it. It says your suppose to soak the seeds in warm water for 24 Hours? Is that really necessary? I germinated a few in the paper towl method and they are growing great.

Has anyone ever planted Morning Glory seeds before?
Just make sure they have a place to run up.I put mine in cinder blocks with trellis behind them.I loved the hummingbirds they encouraged.....
Reply:I guess if the paper towel is working go that way but, by soaking them they will grow faster I always soak mine and my fence is full of beautiful flowers.........you have to space them also, takes time but it is worth it ~~
Reply:Generally whenever you have a seed with a hard shell you should soak it for 24 hours. The paper towl method also works just as long as you keep it wet. If you can get them to grow by seed then stick to what you're doing. As long as they are sprouting you're doing great!
Reply:nope...when i was a teen i would grind em up and eat em though
Reply:We have planted it them ! and if you have succeeded it with the towel method good for you ! it's usually recommended that the seed should soak to speed the germination process .


Enjoy them , they come back every year ! We have dark purple ones!

Is "(Whats The Story) Morning Glory" Worth It?

I like some of Oasis's new stuff (mainly Standing on the Shoulder of Giants and Heathen Chemistry) and i remembered recently that i like Champaign Supernova but should i get the whole album? I didn't like "Definitely Maybe" at all but i am unsure how similar it is to "Morning Glory".





Should i get it (by get it, i mean download it) or should i not waste my time and blank CD's?

Is "(Whats The Story) Morning Glory" Worth It?
Yes


Definitely worth it


It's a brilliant album





You can always check out 'Don't Look Back in Anger' (a track for that album) on youtube and then at least you'll know what kinda style the album is in before you download it

Will Morning Glory climb on a solid wood fence like a wall?

I have a wooden fence but the pickets are flush against each other so there is no space between them. So this forms like a solid wall. Will Morning Glory climb up this or does it need more of a trellis? Thanks!

Will Morning Glory climb on a solid wood fence like a wall?
The morning glory needs something to wrap around. Since your fence is solid, you can tie strings to the top of the pickets and run them down to a nail in the ground a couple of inches away from the fence, so there is a little space between the string and the fence. The morning glories will eagerly climb up this "ladder."
Reply:they need to have something to attach too
Reply:I always Loved Morning Glorys. They would open wide and so pretty in the day and close up at night. Yes they will grow up your fence, as long as they have something to grasp onto it..
Reply:Morning Glory is a form of a weed(from the weed family) and it will grow anywhere even on your fence....can i suggest something more like an flowering ivy instead....the morning glory is hard to keep only in one spot and can take over your garden
Reply:Regarding youre morning glories. At the base of youre fence place small nail in. attach twine,or string to the nail pull to where ever you want youre glories to go. take another small nail and place at top of fence. wrap youre glories around twine not to tight wherever youre strings are youre glories will be. This is what I do and every year they climb the same string. hoped this helped. Good Luck. from indmiles@yahoo.com

Reply:Morning glory is a common name for over 1,000 species of flowering plants in the family Convolvulaceae, belonging to the following genera:





Calystegia


Convolvulus


Ipomoea


Merremia


Rivea


As the name implies, morning glory flowers, which are funnel-shaped, open in the morning, allowing them to be pollinated by hummingbirds, butterflies, bees, and other daytime insects and birds as well as Hawkmoth at dusk for longer blooming variants. The flower typically lasts for a single morning and dies in the afternoon. New flowers bloom each day. The flowers usually start to fade a couple of hours before the petals start showing visible curling. They prefer full sun throughout the day and mesic soils. In cultivation, most are treated as perennial plants in tropical areas and as annual plants in colder climates, but some species tolerate winter cold. Morning glories are a close relative of Moon flowers which open at night to be pollinated by moths.

Growing Morning Glory Indoors?

I'd like to grow some morning glory indoors but have heard they can become quite uncontrolable as they usually grow up fences etc. Well I have some seeds and was thinking of growing them out of a few pots in my bathroom and letting them go wild. Would this work?

Growing Morning Glory Indoors?
They don't seem to mind pots. But they do like *lots* of sun. If your bathroom is very bright, it might work.
Reply:I would sure give it a try.
