Jen--

Mine were also coming up in all the sidewalk/edging cracks after I had THREE MG's growing in 2009.
Same as all the 4-O'clocks . They all ARE in the same family of plants---right?
I grew Grandpa Ott MG's about 4 years ago. maybe more...It climber to my 2nd story windows.
They are STILL coming up--twining all over my Rose and my Clematis in that area.

The 4's look just like MG as seedlings. Hard to tell them apart--until they grow their true leaves--
The 4's leaves are pointed. The MG ones are heart-shaped. Then you can tell which is which.

I miss having a 4'Oclock this season---but I just do not have room for a 3x3 foot "shrub".

Awwwww....I need a bigger garden!!! Gita
