Morning Glory (Morning Call Blue with White Edge) produces large, blue trumpet-shaped flowers with a clean white rim, giving each bloom a bright picotee-style look as it opens fresh in the morning. It grows well in warm weather, prefers full sunlight, and is suitable for 8-12 inch pots, garden beds, balcony grills, fences, trellises, arches, and pergolas where its fast-growing climbing vines can spread beautifully. Loved for its bold blue colour, crisp white edging, and quick vertical coverage, it adds a fresh seasonal display to walls, railings, entrances, and outdoor garden spaces.

Sowing:
-
Setup: Use individual starter pots with seed-starting mix, or sow directly where the vine will grow once frost risk has passed.

-
Transplant: Move young plants with the root ball intact into their growing pot or bed during settled warm weather. Avoid separating or damaging roots.

Sunlight: Provide as much direct sunlight as possible for optimal growth.
