| Pretty morning glories with that backdrop! around here the only ones that come up themselves are the white small weedy ones- impossible to get rid of permanently and they tangle through every bush. Have you ever planted morning glories with moonflowers- each blooming a different time of day?

Those Morning Glories with the little white flower sound like Bindweed.

| Yep, Bindweed is a morning glory BMR.. We tend to get that along fence rows and corn field edges... Haven't seen a lot this ear.. The wife planted some Morning Glories this year I think... Seem to be working out okay

| Morning Glory's are a Garden staple in Illinois. Grow well but most of the nicer cultivars don't compete worth crap vs the wild bindweed variety or grass or anything else.. Anyways, they would have to stand in line behind the pigweed, ragweed, giant ragweed, water hemp, industrial hemp, ironweed, mustards from hell, Queen Anne's Lace, Golden Rod and all the other ones that we seem to dominate, lol.
