Yellow-gold flowers on vines

17 years ago

I planted some morning glory seeds expecting to get blue trumpet-shaped flowers as shown on the seed packet. But,the flowers that grew on the vines were small, with yellow-gold petals surrounding dark centers -- and flat, not trumpet shaped. What are these flowers ?

Oh, I hate when that happens. Do you still have the empty pack? Send it back to the seed company along with a letter of complaint. I did that once to Martha Stewart, and she sent me a refund of $2.49!
