Re: For all those green fingered members..


I've seen Mags' Morning Glory and think I am hooked. Morning Glory is also one you mentioned dandysmom - looks like I will be scouring the garden centres for a couple then

Anyone know how wide they spread. Read somewhere that it grows to 2-3m high. Also the seeds have toxic properties and contain a substance similar in properties to LSD

Was going to mention that but thought I'd leave my sixties past where it belongs!

Re: For all those green fingered members..


That is true about morning glory seeds, but it's highly unlikely that the cats would eat them...! Also, the morning glory, moonvine & cardinal climber are all annuals & usually planted from seed; have never seen any of them potted up in garden centers, at least here. Nasturtiums are usually started as seeds, but can get them potted. That's what I meant about it being late in the season; sorry if I wasn't clear...meant if you start them as seeds, they might not make a very respectable showing this Summer. Never heard of that Russian vine; sounds interesting...will Google! Of course, there is also the infamous Kudzu vine...also known as the vine that ate the South...!! Incredibly rampant grower, don't think you would want one
