I highly recommend you get rid of that morning glory. It is an invasive plant.

5-6 years from you will experience their wrath if you don't. Put in an edulis Frederick. Just as pretty, not invasive and will give you fruit.

Very pretty.

Looks like Dwarf Morning Glory Convolvulus tricolor in pink. I grew 'Blue Ensign' one summer hoping it would reseed. Nope. These are neat morning glories.

I love Morning Glory so I guess I never grew the invasive type. Sure, it reseeds. The seeds germinate everywhere they land. However, they are easy to pull and routine maintenance takes care of that.

Great idea, Stan! We, as gardeners, are always seeing something we think is cool and want someone else to appreciate it. When my good friend and gardening buddy is here, we can drive around and say "Hey! Look at that!" To anyone else, who is not as fanatical as she and I are, it means nothing....LOL..I'm sure I will see things to add to this, keep it going....

My neighbor has a pink morning glory making inroads across the fence into my yard - and I don't mind a bit.

I planted a Perennial Morning Glory at the corner of the fence line wanting it to travel the fence. But, as such things happen, it decided to go UP not sideways and is now gracing a tree with it's pretty blue flowers - 20' up. Since the tree doesn't seem to mind, and I can see it from the kitchen window, I will let it climb as it will - at least until winter.

I think a lot can depend on conditions....I also had the perennial MG, on the Fallbrook property. Yes, it would rather climb and I let it ...to tunes of, Oh you don't want to do that...It was fine, no problem...it did not get a ton of water and the gophers ate it also...natural control...

We have morning glories,growing on a chain link fence that seperates us from the canyon.It grows very nicely,and almost every year dh cuts it back.We have some geranium and a bougainvilla growing on that fence also.Never been a problem for us,and looks pretty when in bloom..

The only locale where I have seen the MG be truly, truly, truly a big problem is Hawaii...wowza.

The perennial kind can get out of control. I'd never buy it, I don't have enough room.

I had some seed dropped by birds and I. cannot. get. rid. of. it.

Yeah,its pretty much ready to pounce if given a chance..but this type is small..no big deal to hoe it out.

Now,the one that's HUGE? That smothers chain link fences and homes?...You can't tame that. Its our Kudzu.

But I had it in Fallbrook and it wasn't bad really...maybe because it never got enough water...LOL...

I see no reason to take the risk, the annual kind are just as pretty.
