I don't believe it I went outside to the side of my fence in the front of my house and someone had stolen my morning glory plant! At first I could not believe it first I looked once then looked again I thought it was one of my friends playing a trick on me. The worst thing is I have been inside all day and they took it right from under my nose without me realising. They left one label with the picture on it on top the bag but it looks like first they stole my plant and then they came back for the other label. I did calm down and was happy that they never got hold of the rest of my morning glories. You don't expect someone to come on your door step and steal something that belongs to you, it's got to be someone in my community who I probably know which makes it even more frustrating. It looks like my season has been a wash out, first lots of rain then sick and twisted plants now this! I think I might know who did it because there is a trail of dirt that stops half way down the road. I can't do anything because it looks like they got away with it. The sad thing is if they had knocked on my door and asked me nicely I would have given them a morning glory rather than have them wrench it away from me. The rest of mine are all hidden now in the back garden where no thief can get them. Rather than get angry I can only assume they needed it more than I did, not to worry I still have loads of others, at least they never got hold of my precious ones. It only goes to show you some people will take your eyeballs then come back for the lashes later and say you look better without them..
Someone STOLE my morning glory!
Just to let everyone know it turned up, it was behind a bush, when I went looking the second time it was there. There are some very immature people around..at least they had the decency to give it back rather than to keep it..

That's pretty crazy that someone would pull such a trick on you! LOL! You must have some pretty sneaky neighbors ... or friends! ;-) LOL!
Dany - I think that "thing" ...scarecrow?? might make someone think twice before snatching! LOL!
The scarecrow looks funny; if you are making reference to Colin or anyone else he does not know where I live and ipomoea tricolor is not rare, he is a busy man with all his ipomoea and has told me this is his main season - his posts are information and he is very professional. CCTV showed that it was kids (groan rolls eyes)
Dany you might want to be careful with your morning glories because Between 1003 and 1526, Transylvania was a voivodeship of the Kingdom of Hungary and there might be a few vampires around (!) I have taken some precautions (!) so I am hanging garlic in my plants it is proven to repel the sap suckers and keeping a bamboo stake handy

So it's a very good idea to always watch your asagao for pests that hover around.
