Moonflowers and Morning Glories 
Beautiful rapid annual climbers. Foliage very dense 
and, in some kinds, of remarkable shape. The flowers 
in their wide range of delicate coloring are poised on 
slender stems. Many of the sorts open only when the 
sun rises, others when the sun sets. Some are 
fragrant. Seeds should be soaked in warm water for 
24 hours before sowing to assist rapid germination. 
The seeds about the size of a pea should be notched 
with a file before soaking.
