answer:I’ve always started my morning glories and moonflowers from seed in the ground. I like to combine the two on my trellis so I have the blue flowers in the morning and big, beautiful white flowers in the evening. The vine is quite aggressive, but I’ve never had a problem with them as long as I keep up with training. From my experience I have found that it is a fairly easy plant to care for, especially if it is planted in the ground. I tried them in pots once but it was a pain to keep up with watering them. If you leave town for an extended period of time you will need someone to water them for you. I rarely need to water them when they are in the ground, unless we are having an unusually dry season.
