Morning Glory (Ipomoea Purpurea Caprice) Ipomoea Purpurea is a Tall Morning Glory that grows rapidly and climbs like crazy! It produces a wealth of open, trumpet-shaped flowers that measure 2 inches across. The flowers are sky blue set off by a violet star. Morning Glory Caprice will produce hundreds of blooms over the summer and they remain open well into the afternoon. Ipomoea Tall Morning Glory is perfect for trellis, walls, archways, or scrambling over fences. This is a flower seed that you will definitely want for your garden! Provide a trellis or pergola, and this climber will climb it! You can even allow it to scramble through shrubs and borders.

Morning Glory Seeds | Caprice How to Grow If starting indoors, Morning Glory seeds should be sown 4-6 weeks before the last expected frost. Soak the seeds in water overnight prior to sowing, then sow into starter trays or packs with a sterile starter mix. Seeds should be planted at a depth of 1/2 inch. Keep the soil moist (but not wet) until germination, which will occur in 7-21 days. After all danger of frost has passed, transplant the seedlings directly outdoors. They should be grown in an area of full sun, although they will tolerate light shade.
