Although each individual bloom lasts only one day, new flowers unfurl continuously and buds continue opening over a week in a vase. Seeds like these were carried across the prairies by pioneer families, transplanting a bit fo home to far-flung homesteads. Traditionally, these old-fashioned climbing vines with heart shaped leaves and glowing blossom trumpets adorned fences or mailboxes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMix Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBotanical name:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cem\u003eIpomoea tricolor\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlant type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Annual\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrowth habit:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vining\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCrop category:\u003c\/strong\u003e Flower seed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlower character:\u003c\/strong\u003e Annual - This heritage blend combines flowers of deep, rich blue and pearly white that open fresh each morning.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRecorded feature:\u003c\/strong\u003e Good Cut Flower\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct format:\u003c\/strong\u003e Seed packet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSowing \u0026amp; Growing\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSoil Temperature:\u003c\/strong\u003e above 50°F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlanting Depth:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1\/2\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGermination:\u003c\/strong\u003e 7-10 Days\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight At Maturity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8-10 feet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSun\/Shade:\u003c\/strong\u003e Full Sun\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpacing After Thinning:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6-8\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePrepare a weed-reduced seedbed for ‘Mailbox Mix’ Heirloom Morning Glory and use the recorded planting season, depth, and light requirements. Press shallow-sown seed into good soil contact and keep the seed zone from drying during establishment. Thin or transplant only when the growth habit and spacing call for it. Leave enough room for mature width and air movement. Bloom timing and final height can shift with sowing date, climate, soil, moisture, and competition, so use listed figures as planning ranges.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eErect well-anchored supports at least 8 feet tall in a wind sheltered area; strong netting or a sturdy trellis serve well to hold these vigorous climbers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMorning glories will bloom hard in mid-summer once days begin to shorten.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlanting \u0026amp; Growing: To Start Indoors: In late spring, once weather is warm and settled and nights stay above 50°F, plant seeds in a sunny spot in ordinary garden soil 2 - 3\" apart and 1\/2\" deep.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFirm soil over seeds and keep evenly moist but not soggy while awaiting germination.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo Start Early Indoors: Sow indoors 4 - 5 weeks before last expected frost in individual pots of seed starting mix.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause this packet contains a mix, component proportions and the number of varieties visible in a small planting will vary.

Evaluate the planting across the full season rather than assuming the first seedlings, flowers, or harvest represent the entire mix.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExplore related options in our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/flower-seeds\"\u003eFlower Seeds\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Renee's Garden","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":21544907735153,"sku":"SWF5328","price":2.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0061\/1391\/9089\/products\/renee-s-garden-morning-glory-mailbox-mix-heirloom.jpg?v=1747083017","url":"https:\/\/www.groworganic.mom\/products\/renee-s-garden-morning-glory-mailbox-mix-heirloom","provider":"Grow Organic","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
