MORNING GLORIES 
In growing Morning Glories never plant until the 
soil is thoroughly warm. If it is too cool the seeds will 
rot instead of germinating. To aid germination soak 
the seed overnight in warm water. Select the driest, 
sandiest part of the garden and sow where the plants 
are to flower as they do not transplant easily. Heavy 
watering will stimulate foliage growth at the expense 
of flowers. A poor soil is preferable to a rich one and 
little if any fertilizer should be used as this will promote 
heavy foliage which will hide the flowers. Morning 
Glories show off to best advantage when planted against 
a wall, fence or trellis. Height 12 ft. or more.
