Thanks for the information Ron. It doesnt seem to be producing any seed pods. When I "googled" Morning Glory Blue Dawn I came across many references that stated Blue Dawn is a perennial and doesn't set seed. Like anything on the internet there can be quite a bit of misinformation so I usually try to look for many opinions and try to draw a consensus. I figured Stellar Pink wasn't new just as some companies market Carnivale Venezia as "new" although I had read that variety has also been around for 100's of years. You're right about "personal preferences" in flowers, etc, etc. I tend to gravitate to larger sized blooms in my other favorites (Hybrid Hibiscus, Daylilies, Echinacea) so I guess I'm just continuing that concept. Here is a photo from this morning (Oct 13 2008) of Morning Glory "Mount Fuji" accompanied by Reblooming Bearded Iris "Autumn Tryst" in the background.
