My Morning Glories certainly took their time blooming!


But they were worth the wait, weren't they?

Plus, the vines helped the mailbox from being more of a victim of the neighborhood boys' annual "mailbox baseball" game.
When winter comes, my mailbox will probably fall to the ground with a clang. That means another trip to the corner hardware store (see that little white store to the left of the mailbox?)

Wow - those flowers sure are unpredictable! I have always had good luck growing them from seed indoors but never was able to get them to "take" to my soil. They sure look showy on your mailbox and well worth both the wait and probably need to replace the mailbox - just make sure not to destroy the seeds as you install it!
