Hi,
I have a BRAND NEW garden to work with this next year. Its on a townhome lot surrounded with a white picket fence. Pretty small. I was wondering if it would be OK to plant my Grandpa Ott's Morning Glory and my white Moon Flower on the same fence. Grandpa Ott's for a nice blue flower in the early to mid morning and the moon flower for some nice white fragrant glow in the evening. I was thinking about mixing the two together on one line of 20' fence. Any suggestions?
Thanks

| I'm growing the same combination. Grandpa Ott's in between two arched trellises, with Moonflowers at the outsides, so they should grow up and over and meet somewhere in the middle. I can't wait to see what they look like together. :-) |

| I am also growing the same combination in containers on my porch deck. Granpa Otts Morning Glory's which I thought were purple but maybe they come in other colors and Moonflowers. I am anxiously awaiting this mixture, hope they grow okay. |

| I have always planted Moonflowers and morning glories together. That way, the morning glories greet me each day out the door and the moon flowers are just opening when I return home in the evenings. |

| somoeone gave me a moonflower and I know it blooms because I see the dead flowers in the morning, but how do you see them at night? I have never seen them yet.Could i put a spotlight on them? Are they a climber? Mine are just a little patch on the ground. |

| Is it possible for morning glory leaves root? A friend tells me she left some leaves in the bed where the morning glories are growing and she has a few clumps growing other then the ones she planted and this is the first year. I would also like to know why my morning glories are not blooming. They look very healthy but have no flowers or buds on them. |
