Morning Glory - Ensign Blend Dwarf

$1.69

The Morning Glory Bush Ensign Blend, 'Convoloulus tricolor; is unlike most other morning glories, the intensely colored flowers of the Ensign Blend are open all day. Another difference between "regular" morning glories is that the Ensign grows in a nice tidy mound, which makes it a great annual groundcover. The Ensign Morning glory displays flowers that are 1 to 2 inches across with three different flowers; white with yellow center, intense rose with bright yellow/white starburst patterns and royal blue with the same center pattern. Plant the Ensign Blend in the spring after the last average frost date. Plants started too early are less vigorous than those started later. Locate them in full sun in well drained soils. This morning glory prefers slightly alkaline to very acid soils. This excellent vine will cover fences and trellises, grow as ground cover, or hang in large baskets or pots. ... more info

Corn - Honey & Cream If we had to choose two vegetables that were much better home grown than bought from a store, corn and tomatoes would be our choice. Plant in the spring, a week or two after the last spring frost or when the soil is warm. Harvest the ears when the husks are dark green and the silks are brown but not brittle. Corn is usually ready 3 weeks after silks appear.
