Notes
'Split Second Morning Glory' morning glory (Ipomoea purpurea 'Split Second Morning Glory') is an annual for borders, containers, and cottage gardens. It is typically grown as an annual. Frost will kill it, so set it out only after the last frost in spring. This plant likes full sun to full shade and average to moist soil of most types. It attracts butterflies, hummingbirds, bees, and birds. Deer usually look elsewhere for a meal.
Pairs well with Valentine sunflower, Easy Wave Blue petunia, and Red fescue.
