MY friend grows moonflowers, theyr'e cool.

Have you ever grown cardinal climber? They bloom red and attract hummingbirds. I didn't have any this year, winter was too harsh and they didn't reseed.

I've never heard of cardinal climber. Sounds interesting though. Well it's not the greatest, but here is a picture of the morning glories & moonflowers I have going.

Looking good. Mine has a lot of growth because it's a lot more plants growing. Not sure now many, just how ever many seeds from last year managed to grow.

I buy my Cardinal Climber seeds at Wal-mart, usually as soon as they put the seeds in the store in January. They sell out pretty fast. It's also called a Cypress Vine.

Next year I want to get some Cardinal Climber (red) some white morning glories and some moonflowers (blue) and get a theme thing going.

mine (that color) just flowered recently.... i planted them late and the vine is only about a foot long, but it put out a pretty lil purple flower... also have some well established "heavenly blues" that have completlely taken over a rose bush on my front walk, i'll try to post some pics of it in the morning... also have another late-planted, very small vine that i hope flowers (for seed) soon; they are "milky ways"...prettiest morning glories i have found to date.... i like flowers.
