Stazia, You posted before that you had 15 acres of sun and woods to fill. I would certainly suggest you you not invade a woodland with anything as invasive as morning glory or Daturas. Also, because there has been some members join and then attempt to acquire massive amounts of morning glories, it has been suggested that no one send any more than 25 seeds per trade. Often they are trades in quantities smaller than that. Below is a good read about MG abuse. hth Here is a link that might be useful: Beware of anyone emailing you privately for Morning Glory

Perennial Morning Glory Zone 5-Have to have it!!!!!
Q
Comments (5)
I'm in zone 5 in Michigan, and my morning glories aren't perennial, but they ARE prolific reseeders. I have about 30 lineal feet of privacy fence completely COVERED with vines right now, and that's after I thinned them out by removing well over half the seedlings. (I've also had a tremendous amount of bunny-damage.) I'd hazard a guess that only about 1-2 of the plants are ones that I planted this year. I had started some indoors, hoping for a head start on the season, not knowing the hundreds of "volunteers" I would get. The ones that I transplanted didn't thrive like the natural-born ones, which is why I suspect that the vast majority of the existing vines are the volunteers. If I remember, I'll try to take a picture and post it to show you just how many of these things I have. It's a combination of Grandpa Otts, Tricolor, and Multi-color, cheap seeds from Wal-Mart and Meijer. (Incidentally, I had searched for "perennial" morning glories last year, and learned that there are VERY few perennials for ANY zone, esp. if you're not in the tropics. However, because they self-sow so well, it's pretty much the same thing as being perennial, as long as you don't deadhead them so the seeds actually form.)

I have Giant Violet, California Giant and Lilliput. All commercial from a friend. I also have hand collected lg Scarlet Zinnia. I started out with Red Spider Zinnia, but they tanked on me and the few seeds I had are gone. I would like some of your Rose of Sharon and hardy phlox. I'm fine with sending you some of each. It doesn't have to be a pack-for-pack trade. I have so many seeds I'll never get them planted and I love giving them to people who want them.
