Grow “Black Kniolas” Morning Glory from fresh flowering vine seeds. “Black Kniolas” produces a deep violet, almost black flower that will bloom to about 1.5 to 2 inches in width. Greatly used to cover a fence or trellis, and exceptionally gorgeous when sown near a white background / fence. For an eye popping contrast Kniolas Black Ipomoea can be sown with or near white Ipomoea plants such as the Moonflower, Shiva, or Milky Way varieties.
Ipomoea purpurea will grow to a mature length of about 6 to 8 feet long. Morning Glory is an annual plant that will bloom profusely up until the first frost. It may return the following year if seeds fall to the ground below it.
Growing the Morning Glory vine is simple. Because it has a hard outer shell, nicking the seeds with a knife, or scratching them with sandpaper is recommended. After nicking the seeds, simply place them in warm water overnight to soften the hard outer shell. They can be sown the next day.
Morning Glories can be started indoors, in peat pots for easy transplanting later on. They can also be started directly in the area of your choice when the weather becomes warm. Temperatures should be at least 65F for the seedlings to thrive. Sow the seeds about 1/4” under topsoil. Provide at least 6 hours of sunlight each day, and a fair amount of moisture. Small sprouts should begin poking through the earth in roughly 10 to 20 days, sometimes even sooner.
Sowing The Seed
You will notice that Morning Glory seeds consist of a hard outer shell. Before sowing these seeds, they should be prepped by scarification or soaking. Sometimes you can even consider both methods. Nick the seeds with sandpaper or a knife and soak in warm water, for 24 hours. If starting indoors, sow in peat pots, 6 to 8 weeks prior to the last frost. Place the seeds at a depth of 1/2" under topsoil. Transplant, or direct sow into the garden when the weather is warm and all danger of frost has passed.
Growing Conditions
Morning Glory plants will thrive in the heat of summer and prefer an area of full sunlight. Temperatures should be at least 70F or higher. The soil should be average to sandy, but also well drained. To increase drainage, we recommend adding a light compost to areas containing hard, compact soil. Water the seeds daily until germination has occurred, watering less frequently as time goes on.
Germination & Growth
Morning Glory seeds typically germinate within roughly 7 to 14 days after sowing. The plants are known to grow and establish with the support of a fence or trellis. Each vine can grow to a mature length of 7 to 13 feet long, displaying large, trumpet shaped flowers all summer long. Each plant can be spaced about 18 to 24 inches apart, depending on the thickness of coverage you desire. Morning Glories are known to attract all sorts of beneficial insects to the garden, such as butterflies, bumblebees, honeybees & hummingbirds as well.

I am located in Anchorage, Alaska. I germinated and planted a little late for our area (June) and these still grew and bloomed wonderfully. This plant is great even if you only have porch space, just get a pot and stick a trellis in, voila! My kids have enjoyed watching them climb. We hope to enjoy them for at least another month until the first frost.. but I will definitely get these seeds again next year!

I dug up a planter full of hibiscus and lantana, added a bag of potting soil, built a trellis and planted these in the early spring. (March where I live). I watered once a week or so and by early May they covered the trellis with beautiful flowers that open in the morning and close by mid day. Glorius when they are open!It's approaching 105deg this week and it'll be 110deg by next week. They may need a little more frequent watering soon, but right now they're still thriving! Full sun during the winter, in the summer they'll be under an eave (barely).

I planted these along the fence between my neighbor and me. We were both simply amazed how beautiful these are. Just masses of flowers that can even be seen from the road which is 100 feet away!

Value for money, great. Size of flower for purple was alittle disappointing compared to the blues BUT I had them in all different areas, some recieved more water then others and some recieved more sun then others. Death rate was amazing! The PURPLEs did way better in shaded areas but with more watering needed. I would definitely suggest miricl-grow. I won't know about how the sprouts do for next year for another 6 months. I know from experience if the dropped flowers are protected, they will help with sprouting new for next year.

I wanted to wait a few months to review these seeds to see if they actually germinated. Most of them did! I scattered them against a trellis, watered daily until germination, and now just a few months later they’re blooming!
