I took some morning glory pictures again this morning. You'll have to let me know when you get tired of them.
First picture shows them clear to the roof on the outside.


The next three pictures were taken from the inside.
They are taking over the roof.






We were all sitting on the porch Sunday keeping an eye on them so they didn't do a sneak attack on us.

We planted those seeds on March 6th. I soaked them 48 hours first. They had little sprouts coming out when I planted them. I covered them lightly and they came up in two or three days. I have never had morning glories grow like these. dooley

Oh my! Look at all the beautiful morning glories! Be still my heart.

They look fabulous, simply fabulous. : )

After soaking my Morning Glory seeds for 2 days, I finally planted them today so my fingers are crossed they grow up to be as nice as yours, dooley.

WOW! They just keep going, don't they? They are growing so fast it seems like you should be able to see them getting bigger -- can you? I'm not at all tired of them!

I'm not tired of them at all, Dooley--in fact, I have some of my own almost ready to be transplanted.
Those of yours really did turn out fantastic, didn't they?.Well done, you!

You've got the prettiest ceiling in the neighbourhood by the looks of it. But I'm not sure I would have slept soundly with those outside. Laughing

Holy Cow!! Those are gorgious. Seems as though you just planted those the other day- don't it. Wow! have they grown. I can only hope I get Morning glories as pretty as yours. You've got to keep showing even as they get higher.
How is your circle of mixed flowers coming along with your windmill?
