You have your choice on this plant of getting 5 Rooted cuttings shipped bare root. Each rooted cutting will be at least 2' long (often they are much longer) and will be rooted. Most (or all) of the leaves will be removed from the vine for shipping.
OR
1 well rooted plant growing in a 16 oz container and shipped in the container with the soil and root system in tact. These vines are generally 2' long. Some of the large leaves will be removed for shipping.
This is the fast growing perennial BLUE DAWN FLOWER MORNING GLORY ( Ipomoea acuminata, Ipomoea indica ) (this vine does NOT GET SEEDS).
Each vine will easily reach 30' when established. This vine is a hardy perennial to USDA Zone 9 (for certain, because that is where I live), but I have had people tell me they grow these in the Carolina's and near Dallas, TX. They will also grow well in large pots for northern states so you can protect them in the winter. These beautiful vines have an abundance of electric blue flowers that fade as the day goes on to a pink-purple. They don't really close up like annual morning glories, but stay open most of the day. These vines do not get seeds, but do spread with runners along the ground. These can grow in partial shade or full sun in average, well draining soil. Easy maintence plant - will grow anywhere! Do you have an embankment that needs a lift, or an arbor or archway . . . a dead tree, a power pole, even that old fence (or new fence!) - you name it, these beautiful vines will add color and interest anywhere you plant them!
Since these spread with runners along the ground, make sure to leave enough room on the ground around the vine for the runners it will send out.
