Blue My Mind^® Dwarf Morning Glory Evolvulus hybrid

I have grown these for years. I absolutely love them. In south Texas they are perennials if protected when a hard freeze comes. They spill over containers beautifully and mix well with other flowers. i grew them as annuals in zone 6.

We live in South Carolina and our Blue my minds grow as perennials .. They also bloom way into the late fall here in SC. They give us a larger spread than what's listed. Ours grow about 2 feet wide. We love them

These were not winners for me. I tried them in a zone 7 and they never did much. I planted them in late May but the plants didn't start putting on any growth until August, so we were only able to really enjoy them for a month. They didn't fill in and looked pretty sad for most of the season.

This was a difficult transplant on beginning I planted in soil that was poor with cactus since drought tolerant. Did better with more fertilizer and water. May have lost due to recent Texas freeze even covered and protected. Cut it back fertilized and we will see. Will do weekly for a while.

Mom wanted a red white and blue garden in front of the house for 4th of July. We spotted Blue My Mind in Lowe’s while picking up some red and white vinca. We had just removed overgrown shrubs from this spot, so with some new soil, manure, peat moss and turning of the bed we set out the plants according to Mom’s plot plan. This was about the 20th of June. By the fourth we had a magnificent display that was the envy of the neighborhood and the joy of Mom’s heart. It is now Oct 17 and the bed is still going strong although I’ve removed some of the vinca as they started to get to thick and crowd the lower blue my mind. They are backed up by yellow and red hibiscus plants. What joy this garden has brought my Mom who is no longer able to get out to the yard. This is a joy from the front porch where she now spends her time. Thanks for a great plant.
