The Beautiful Reseeding Morning Glory
Morning Glories on twine |
From a wildflower seed packet, the morning glories (photo) are the first green leaves to sprout along with dandelions. The original seeds were planted circa 2005. They bloom into autumn until the first hard frost.
Amazing that is has been 18 years reseeding morning glories keep blooming in my planters, and from in the ground. Some years the twine goes across the top of the patio window. This year, the plants aren't as lush.
Is there an old stand by flower reseeding in your garden?
Nothing like you have growing reseeds itself here, my friend.
ReplyDeleteI seem to have some California poppies coming up-from flowers that bloomed ages ago. I love those flowers-so I hope they keep coming up.
ReplyDeleteMarie,
ReplyDeleteDaisies will continue to grow in the right place. Sometimes they spread quite well. Try them in a warm area.
The morning glory seeds here are in a protected area near the patio where there's heat from indoors as well as the laundry room exhaust. Lucky seeds.
Debra,
ReplyDeletePerennials are the path to follow as they dependability of seeing the same flowers in the same place is comforting.

Morning glories are wonderful re-seeders even in our climate in Ontario. We always found sunflowers to be the same.
ReplyDeleteMaryanne,
ReplyDeleteYou are lucky to have sunflowers reseed.
I haven't seen any here in the weeds crop up. If they do, then I can transplant them to a comfy space where they will grow.
My sweet peas and black eyed Susans spread like weeds. Pretty weeds, but totally out of control!
ReplyDeleteJeanie,
ReplyDeleteThis summer must have been perfect for black eye Susans because they are big tall patches of them in people's yards.
Yes those same morning glories are running rampant everywhere in my garden. If they were not so pretty I just might be rather unhappy but they are truly beautiful. Hugs!
ReplyDeleteDebbie,
ReplyDeleteThis is the first year I've cut down a morning glory. There are only so many that can weave through the other plants. :)
Tres belle!
ReplyDeleteMerci, William
