Hello Friends! If herbs are the garden's thriftiest plants, then Morning Glory would have to be the thriftiest flower. These showy flowers bloom profusely through the Fall and are one of my favorites. Did you know they actually prefer poor soil?! I read that when the soil is too fertile, only the heart shaped leaves will grow. Planting by seed is certainly the most economical way to go. The only preparation required is for the hard seeds to be soaked in water over night before planting. Also, plant them near a trellis or fence they can climb on but not too close to other plants the vines may strangle.
