Diary of a weekend gardener

Rain - and morning glory, but only if you're up early...

Finally we had some rain today - just 3mm - but better than nothing.

I've grown Ipomoea, or morning glory, for the first time this year. Trouble is that's exactly what they do - flower first thing in the morning then fade and die before lunchtime. Though I have found that on a west facing wall in the shade they last much longer - they must be waiting for the sun to come round.



Ipomoea 'Blue Star'. This one is about 4" in diameter.


Ipomoea 'Crimson rambler'
