Morning Glory - Split Personality

The Morning Glory Spilt Personality, 'Tpomoea purpurea', has graceful, delicately split, star-shaped flowers that will add a unique look to your garden. The 2 inch star shaped flowers are magenta-pink in color. They are called morning glory because blooms open in the cool of the morning. During the fall, flowers open all day. They will bloom from summer until fall frost. The Spilt Personality Morning Glory does not like to dry out, so water frequently. Morning glories seem to bloom earlier and with more blooms when they are constricted to a pot. Plant in the spring after the last average frost date. Plants started too early are less vigorous than those started later. This excellent vine will cover fences and trellises, grow as ground cover, or hang in large baskets or pots. ... additional information

 

Radish - White Icicle The Radish White Icicle, 'Raphanus sativus', is an attractive snow white, 5" - 6" long, tapered radish with a mild flavor. It is easy to grow and is quite early for a summer radish. White Icicle can produce a crop when spring radishes won't. This mild flavored radish is great eaten fresh, in salads, or in sandwiches. The flower tops are edible and the green tops can also be used in salads. Plant in late spring. Successive planting every 10 days will prolong the radish harvest. Radishes prefer loose, light soil with a fair amount of organic material. Harvest when the radish is 5 inches long. Bigger radishes get pithy and hot.
