Morning Glory

I've often wanted to try growing some Morning Glories, but have simply never gotten around to the attempt.  But recently I decided to try growing some up a metal obelisk that I had.  So, at it's base, I planted several seeds of the "Early Call Mix" back in late May.  They quickly sprouted and started growing up the metal frame.

And finally, the first bloom has opened (and there are a few other unopened buds promising future blossoms).  There should eventually be several colors, but I find the pale blue of this first flower extremely attractive.

  2. As obstreperous as its wild cousin is, I have found these difficult to grow. Yours is lovely.
