Morning Glory (Ipomoea Nil Kikyo-zaki ) - We have the Japanese to thank for this brilliant colored morning glory mix grown from flower seeds. The Japanese started selecting morning glories in the 9th century, and this Kikyo-zaki mix is one of their most stunning. Ipomoea nil Kikyo-zaki mix, the Japanese Morning Glory, sports huge blooms with a pronounced unique star shape. This morning glory seed sports a combination of red, white, and blue. The extraordinary blooms are 5to 6 inches wide with a white edge. This is a show-stopper of a morning glory and a very rare selection indeed!
This morning glory variety has blooms which are star-shaped and many will be semi-double. This extremely carefree and free-blooming climbing vine will bloom early and load itself with masses of attractive brilliantly colored flowers all summer long. In a good summer will reach 9ft tall when planted from morning glory seed, perfect for covering arbors, trellises and fences.
