Morning Glory, Grandpa Otts (Ipomoea purpurea)

Annual
Glorious purple trumpets with white throats sporting a fuchsia star on 10 foot vining plants. This heirloom was grown in Bavaria in the 1800s, and passed down to family members Kent and Diane Whealy, who started the Seed Savers Exchange.
To grow: Soak seed overnight in water, then plant indoors in peat pots 4-6 weeks before last frost. Transplant outdoors in fertile soil in full sun when soil has warmed, keeping soil and roots intact.
