Morning Glory - as the name suggests 
these plants produce their flowers in 
the morning and by evening they are gone. 

Large quantities of colourful flowers are 
produced throughout the Summer and 
they scramble everywhere. All gardeners 
should find a spot for one! Cheap to buy 
and fantastic results for very little effort. 

They reach a height of 460 cm and a 
spread of 90cm. They are frost tender 
but shake the seeds off and next year is 
sorted! 

They do need however, the morning sun 
even if they fall into shade by noon - so 
they will even work in a North facing 
situation if planted in the right slot! 

Ipomoea purpurea
