I was bored,so I snapped a pic of my glories,what do you guys think?
oops,here it is,hehe,too stoned.PEACE
Here it is really,haha.
How long have you been growing those for?
Oh,I started them indoors,around february or march,and I use my special organic fertilizer on them,for super fast results.PEACE
good job :thumbsup:
I wa grow HBW and MG Blue Star,Heavenly Blue last year
what's the variety over there?
Oh my vareity is a very rare south american species,at least rare around here.It doesn't reproduce by seed.It sends out runners with roots attached,and colinates vast areas,and in the winter it totally dies back,and comes out next spring by the vines and roots.I aquired it growing wild in a north florida marsh.I took home a cutting with roots,and it took off.I've never seen it at any garden centers,or catalogs.I'll try to find out the exact species.PEACE
I have that same species growing all over my property--it hasnt flowered in 2 years that I have been here though---I would like to know which species it really is, especially since it doesnt flower--I dont see a way to upload a pic or I would
[attachment=o67933]see them behind my cacti
hey mindzeye
are you sure those are glories???
Those are glories,my same species,so it seems.yeah ,some years they won't bloom,and sometimes they will.And once in a great moon they will produce seed,but that is as rare as finding peyote growing in your backyard,hehe.Now they say this plant contains lsa.no seeds?how would you ever get any then? My theory is,when it finally does seed,wich is rare,they will be a potent seed,you think?This is amongst the strangest morning glory I've encountered.I'm going to find it's exact species.I'll post back later.PEACE
hey harmonic--I am sure it is in the Ipomoea family, not positive it is convulaceae though---I majored in horticulture previously and even asked my old instructors and they confirmed it is Ipomoea but not sure which variety--I have tons of it if you would like a nice cutting, let me know and I will send one your way.
A couple more shots--the little flowers you do see in the one pic are another vine I have growing with them, so they still have no flowers and I do not expect them too. Too bad--it would make true ID possible

hmmm maybe it needs different conditions to flower
maybe nutes or light hours???
thats ok about the cuttings
I have Heavenly blues growing :-)
however Ill never eat the seeds
I still have seeds from last year
Ok,I found the exact species of our glory bro,i'ts called the blue dawn flower,Ipomoea acuminata.Here are some pics of what your blooms will look like.I'ts actually protected in some states,and Illegal to mess with.I was right, it is rare,and I beleive endangered.I'll keep you posted if mine ever blooms,haha.PEACE
Oh yeah,The site I got theese pics from said all parts of the plant are poisonous,hehe.Psychedelic I beleive.PEACE
yes, blue dawn does grow wild here--harmonic may be right, perhaps I am missing some nutes for it---it seems healthy as can be though. It is covering nearly an acre! I have some blue dawn growing that does flower on my greenhouse property, however the foliage doesnt get nearly as large as the ones here at my house.--hmmm--below is a pic of a flower from mine last year

beutiful pic man,hopefully mine will flower this year.I'm thinking since morning glories like to grow in poor soil,mine just might be getting too much fertilizer.They say the more fertilizer morning glories get,they produce more leaves and less blooms.PEACE
ive got a HUGE morning glory bush in my back yard. they are purple though, wtf? the inside of the flower is dark purple then it kits whitish twords the rim of the flower. but this bush has like 300+ flowers on it. what do yall think?
We'll tell you what we think,when you snap a pic of them,hehe.PEACE
yeah, show a pic, it will help--I am currently growing about 10 varieties--the purple on the inside going to white on the out is most likely 'star of yelta'--I know it can have a tendancy to do that
Here is a pic of a new one I am growing called 'Sunrise Serenade' Ipomoaea pupurea. It is neat--the flowers, as you can see, are not at all like the standard morning glory flower, they are all frilly like. I like it a lot

any one know how i might go about gettin the seeds out of the plant?
Little round seed pods will develope in fall. the plant will brown and die. Wait till the pods brown and are dry and dead, not when there ripe. There will be little black seeds in the pods. a couple in each pod that develope throughout the fall. I wouldent eat them though.
What you need is cobra venom simmered in scorpions, lion meat, and gum ammoniac before the alter of the Graeco-Egyptian god Jupiter-Ammon.
