A recently rediscovered heirloom double morning glory. I first caught a glimpse of an unstaked plant snaking along in the undergrowth of a friend’s garden and was arrested by the large 1–3" ruby-red blooms with white throats. As I bent closer, I was amazed by the frilly slightly wavy extra petals. A vigorous 12–15' plant, it needs to be tied up in order to climb. When thus displayed, the flowers contrast nicely with the heart-shaped green leaves. Often the first morning glory to bloom, also stays open longer than the singles. Annual. ⑤
