What is the proper method to harvest this seasons morning glory seeds and save them for new plantings next year? |
Your morning glory seeds should be mature by now, so remove the seed pods from the plant and cut them open.

Before planting in the spring, soak theseeds overnight to loosen the seed coat and speed germination. Since morning glories sometimes resist transplanting, it's safest to sow them outdoors.
