Re: Bush Morning Glory

I grew bush morning glory when I lived in Tuolumne in zone 7 elevation 2600 foot.   I loved its silver gray foliage and it did bloom profusely.  I had it planted with Snowberry, Sunset Manzanita and California fuschia.  It was planted on a southwest facing hillside I terraced with granite riprap and backfilled with native clay soil amended with compost to improve drainage (our clay soil at that location was like gumbo).  I lived along a year round creek, so the temperature was somewhat moderated and we generally had breezes which kept the frost from settling.  We did get snow two or three times in the winter. 
 
I tried growing it where I live now in zone 9 but I think it got too much water in it's location and it died.
