Morning Glory Seed Identification

Baton Rouge area, LA(Zone 8b)

I got some interesting seeds from ebay. My order was messed up. They were supposed to be Japanese Morning glory seeds. What kind are these? Are they ipomoea tricolor?

And please check the second bag of seeds. I can see a few of them are possibly ipomoea tricolor but what the heck are the dried fruit looking ones? Should I post this in another section for ID?

These for sure are not JMGs. LOL

Now for the the interesting ones. The three seeds on the left look like ipomea tricolor and the shiny black dried fruit looking ones look like???? I wrote the seller to ask what they were and they didn`t have a clue.

the dried ( fruit looking ones)seeds can be either candy lilies or daylily seeds. both of these plants have seeds like this so until you actually grow them out i would say its either one.

This was a good vendor usually but they let some teenagers help fill some orders and they screwed up..bad. LOL

I did get my money back and I`ll go back again because I believe was an isolated occurance.

A happy ending, good to hear.

Thanks everyone for the answers and replies. I appreciate it very much!!!

I now have enough seeds to cover up my entire property with vines :)

The lily seeds should be fun to try.
