Next spring, I am thinking of planting some Potted MG's where the soil is so "cherty" and hard to work around part of our deck...
My question is this... Should I used Potting Soil or Garden Soil to place in the pots.. and do you think that Worm Castings would be a good addition?

Oh and btw, I thought these were Moon flowers, but they bloom in the morning, so I reckon they are MG's.. Never knew there were white ones.

Thanks,
Carolyn

Carolyn -

The white ones you have there are
"Pearly Gates"- Ipomoea tricolor

The large Blue ones with the star pattern behind the white one are
"Blue Star" - Ipomoea tricolor

and the fuzzy vine tip upper left is likely to be an
Ipomoea purpurea
