Growing Instructions from Seeds

Morning Glory seeds have a relatively hard seed coat.

For better and more uniform germination:

Soak the seeds in clean water for approximately 8–12 hours before sowing.

Sow approximately:

1–1.5 cm deep

in seedling pots, grow bags or directly into the final growing position.

Keep the growing medium:

Lightly and consistently moist until germination.

Once seedlings begin active vine growth, provide a trellis, net, railing or other vertical structure so the vines can climb naturally.

Germination

Seeds generally germinate within:

7–14 days

under suitable warm conditions.

For successful germination:

• Use fresh seeds

• Pre-soak seeds before sowing

• Maintain warm temperatures

• Keep the growing medium lightly moist

• Avoid sowing too deeply

• Avoid excessive watering

• Maintain good drainage

Plant Spacing

Maintain approximately:

20–30 cm / 8–12 inches between plants

when growing several vines together.

Adequate spacing helps maintain airflow and provides sufficient room for vigorous vine development.

Sunlight

Provide:

Full sun

For strong vine growth and abundant flowering:

6+ hours of direct sunlight daily

is recommended where possible.

Watering

Water regularly while seedlings and young vines are becoming established.

After establishment:

Water when the upper soil layer begins to dry.

Keep the soil moderately moist but well-drained.

Avoid continuous waterlogging.

Climbing Support

Morning Glory Ruffled Red is a natural twining climber and requires vertical support.

Suitable supports include:

• Trellis

• Garden net

• Balcony railing

• Fence

• Pergola

• Garden arch

• Wire support

Guide young vines gently towards the support where required.

Once established, the vines will naturally twine around suitable structures.

Feeding

At planting time, mix:

GREEN GARDENS Vermicompost

into the growing medium.

Morning Glory performs well in moderately fertile soil enriched with organic matter.

Avoid excessive nitrogen fertilizer, as excessive leafy growth may reduce flowering.
