Last year (our first year with morning glories) the 15 plants worked on
their vines primarily until about mid-August. Then a few flowers and by
September it was pretty well covered.

The vines got about 10 ft high (limit of support) and when the frost
came I had about 300 lb of vines to cart off to the compost. Make sure
they have a strong supporting structure.

I have four or five varieties, in various places around the yard, in
various soils. Some are in the ground, some are in pots. Some of them
started from seed, some came as starters from the greenhouse.

One of them is seven feet high.

The weather here has been mostly in the 70s and 80, but once got up to 91.

When can I expect them to flower?

Or do you think I'm doing something wrong?

Thank you,
