10 untreated seeds
High Quality

Morning glory is a classical favorite for gardeners. This easy-to-grow flowering vine produces captivating, trumpet-shaped, sapphire blue flowers with white throats. Climbing as high as 15 feet, this abundant bloomer is perfect for decorating mailboxes, fences, trellis and handrails. Individual blooms can be as large as 5 inches, opening in the day and closing up as the sun starts to set. The plants produce numerous seed pods each containing four to six seeds, which should easily allow the plant to reseed itself for the following season. The seeds also have a historical significance in that they were grown by Native Americans, most notably the Aztecs, who called the plant “tlitliltzin.”
