RARE LAVENDER MOONVINE
IPOMOEA TURBINATA
5 SEEDS!!

As the warm day's sun begins to set and the cool breeze of the evening blows through the garden...keep a watch towards your Moonvines ~ this is their hour of glory! Don't blink or you'll miss a magical moment when the large buds 'unfurl' into wondrous plate size beauty's of the night, right before your eyes!

If I were to pick my favorite vine...the Ipomoea's top my list. It's the first seed I plant in the Spring, and the last bloom to give up in the fall. These magnificent Queen's of the Night appear to signal your Night Garden to come alive each evening! When planted together, different varieties of Moonvines create a dynamic showing under the stars!

Unlike her sister the SCENTED "WHITE MOONVINE" the Rare Lavender Moonvine does not have a fragrance, but then, when you look this good, you really don't need a second job! Besides, when compared to other Ipomoea's, what she lacks in scent, the Lavender Moonvine makes up in tenacious bloom production.

HEIGHT: 8-12'

ZONE: Reseeding annual in all Zones.
SOW: You can direct sow when ground is warm. Start indoors 6-8 weeks before last frost. And, this vine does wonderful in staked pots. Lavender Moonvine needs a trellis or support to climb.

Nick & Soak seed 24 hours in warm water. Sow 1/2" deep in moist, warm, good potting soil. Give warm spot by bright window. Transplant when outdoor soil is warm. Keep plant watered.

Hi Trish...
Great & important question! (added above for everyone to read)
The flowers or seeds from either Datura's or Impomoea's are indeed non-edible and can be toxic to both humans and pets. In fact, unless otherwise stated by the seller, 90% of the flowers in our gardens are for viewing & smelling only, and NOT to be ingested. Two rules of thumb, teach children this basic "Garden Rule" and always tag and plant your edibles in their own area.
