Morning Glory Leaf problem

19 years ago

Hi! I just discovered this website and hope someone can help. I planted two Heavenly Blue morning glories in pots on either side of my driveway. I've grown them in pots before (though not in this location) and never had trouble before. They're growing like crazy (they've already reached the top of a five foot trellis) but many of the leaves are turning brown and crispy, and others have little holes. I've discovered Golden Tortoise Beetles on some of the green leaves and figure while they're causing cosmetic damage I've not seen where they hurt the plant overall or damage the blossoms. Which is the other problem -- they were planted about two weeks ago and so far no flowers. They receive full sun almost all day. I have a Flying Saucer morning glory in the back yard that gets morning shade and it doesn't seem to be affected. I've been watering them nearly every day (I'm in Northwest Ohio and we haven't had rain here for about 10 days). Any help would be greatly appreciated.
