Is it too late to plant Morning Glories??

Posted by Carol_P Zone 4 - NW Iowa (My Page) on

I'm very new at gardening and I want to put up a trellis one one side of my garden. Can I still plant Morning Glories at this late date?

Also (forgive the obvious newbie here), are all MG started from seed or can I go get a plant at the garden center? :)

Thanks for any help! I live in NW Iowa - near Spencer.

Carol, give it a shot, what do you have to lose? As far as I know, Morning Glories are best direct sown. You might want to soak them over night or nick the seed before you sow them. They have a tough outer coating and soaking or nicking them helps them germinate better, or so I've been told. ;) Have fun!
