Welcome a piece of horticultural history and spectacular beauty to your garden with Kikyo-Zaki Morning Glory seeds. This stunning Japanese heirloom variety isn't just a flower—it's a living connection to the legendary "morning glory booms" of Edo-period Japan, where these plants became a cultural sensation among gardeners. Today, you can grow this "rare selection" known for its huge, star-shaped blooms that create a breathtaking display of patriotic red, white, and blue.

Fast-growing and incredibly showy, this climbing vine will quickly cover trellises, fences, or arbors with lush foliage and a continuous summer-long parade of unique, saucer-sized flowers.

🌱 Planting Instructions

• When to Plant: Direct sow seeds outdoors after all danger of spring frost has passed.

• Seed Prep (Recommended): For best germination, soak seeds in water for 24 hours before planting.

• Depth & Spacing: Plant seeds 1/4 to 1/2 inch deep. Space seeds 6-8 inches apart, later thinning seedlings to about 12 inches apart.

• Germination: Seeds typically sprout in 7-21 days with consistent moisture.

☀️ Growing Conditions & Care

• Sunlight: Requires full sun (at least 6-8 hours daily) for the most prolific blooming.

• Soil: Prefers well-draining soil and is adaptable to poorer soils that aren't overly rich.

• Watering: Water regularly to keep soil moist during germination and establishment. Mature vines are quite drought-tolerant.

• Support is Essential: Provide a strong trellis, fence, netting, or arbour for the vines to climb
