Six months with Morning Glory — what I actually learned

I brought Morning Glory home six months ago with high hopes and almost no knowledge. The first challenge was understanding pruning at the correct season for the specific variety — something I hadn't expected to matter so much. Once I got that right, the whole thing settled down.

I grow it in a trellis panel as a garden divider and the position has been ideal. vertical growing habit maximising space in small gardens is what keeps drawing me back to it. autumn foliage colour on deciduous species before leaf fall was the moment that made me glad I persisted through the learning curve. One honest warning: pruning at the wrong time removing next season's flower buds caught me off guard in month two. Stay on top of it from the start.
