5. Heirloom and Non-GMO

Growing 

Planting and growing O'Hara is a breeze, even for beginner gardeners. Here’s how to get the most out of your seeds:

• Location: Choose a spot with full sun exposure. Morning glories thrive in sunlight and require at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight each day to bloom their best.

• Soil: These plants prefer well-drained soil but are adaptable to various soil types. Adding compost or organic matter can help enrich the soil and promote healthy growth.

• Planting: Soak the seeds overnight before planting to encourage quicker germination. Direct sow the seeds outdoors after the last frost, spacing them about 6 inches apart. Cover lightly with soil, as they need some light to germinate.

• Watering: Keep the soil moist but not soggy during germination. Once established, O'Hara is relatively drought-tolerant and requires minimal watering.

• Support: Provide a trellis, fence, or arbor for the vines to climb. You can also grow them as ground cover if desired.

• Maintenance: These low-maintenance flowers require little care beyond occasional watering and pruning if the vines become too dense.
