I bought a lot of seeds that aren`t what they were supposed to be. They were obviously open pollinated or the seller gave me the wrong seeds. For the most part 98 % of sellers on ebay have got it together. If they tell you they are open pollinated then you know they might not come out exactly like the picture. Some sellers have so many home grown nils and other types of morning glories for sale that I seriously doubt they are hand tied pods unless they have 100s of little elves running around bagging and tying blooms.

That is another reason I`m bagging or tying my blooms this year. That is the only way to help ensure my own seeds I save for myself will come out right.

Here is a result of F2 grow out of a Fuji x ukigumo cross. I got three different looks. This is the "I don`t have anywhere else to put them" method of growing JMGs. I did Not arrange them this way. It is so neat to see how these flowers can arrange themselves for you just to get their picture made in the morning.
