I grew a bunch of morning glories in windowbox planters on my third-floor apartment's balcony, in order to provide shade and concealment from my neighbors. The planters are only about 6 to 8 inches wide and deep, and are sharing almost two dozen vines of various types between them (I was expecting some die-off, which didn't happen). They're filled with plain old potting mix from the hardware store. Despite the crowded and less-than-ideal conditions, the vines have each grown to anywhere from 10 to 15 feet long, and have produced hundreds of flowers and seeds all year.
