I would like to learn a little more about this perennial morning glory,
especially about how you may have used it in your Medit gardens -- up a
trellis, over a wall, groundcover, or scrambling up another plant? Also,
what kind of pruning/thinning do you do, if any at all? I understand that
the bloom time can be extremely long, with masses of the purple-blue flowers
well into autumn. If the plant becomes a bit too vigorous for ones space,
can it be successfully maintained to a smaller size, say 8-10 feet instead of
20?
Thank you in advance for all responses! C. Carter, California, Z9
