Re: Impomoea andersonii

Janice,

Is this the perennial morning glory you plan to plant?  If so, and you live
in a warm winter area, I strongly advise against planting it  anywhere
except the far reaches of your yard.  I planted a perennial morning glory
along my vegetable garden fence which I had given a yellow wash.  It looked
fabulous -- the yellow wood with the dark green leaves and deep purple
flowers.  HOWEVER, that was the year before last and the morning glory
invaded EVERYTHING -- raised beds, other flower beds, trees, and I am
fighting it tooth and nail to get rid of it.  It is a disaster!  So be
forewarned.....
