Simplified Rules For Raising The Rare Giant Morning Glories From Seed 
by PORT-ROSE GARDEN 
1. Sow jj rt deep in 4” seed bed of washed sand. 
2. For growing in the open, wait until nights are thoroly warm; May 15-June 1 in our 
Northern Illinois. During this time make several sowings at intervals. 
3. Before putting in the bed, carefully cut through heavy outer coat of seed 3-4 
times with a sharp knife, until you can see light colored cotyledons beneath. 
This on convex surface. 
4. Water daily; we like 10:00 in the morning. 
5. Transplant to permanent location when the great cotyledons have completely un¬ 
folded and turned green. We set on a mound 10” high in soil into which has been 
forked a spadeful of sand and one of old cow manure. Shade 24 hours after trans¬ 
planting. 
6. Choose permanent location where there is full sun and at least 2 ft. in the clear 
around the young plant. 
7. Continue watering daily, and, if you wish larger flowers use on alternate days 
a weak manure tea, instead of plain water. (The tea is made by putting old cow 
manure into a barrel, one third full, and filling up with water. Let it stand 
for several weeks, then of this concentrate use one part to 10 of water.) 
8. At morning watering, pinch off any side shoots forming on main stem. Continue 
until vine starts blooming. This is the only slavery connected with the process; 
but it is necessary to avoid a too redundant growth.
