Morning Glory - Ensign Blend Dwarf
The Morning Glory Bush Ensign Blend, 'Convoloulus tricolor; is unlike most other morning glories, the intensely colored flowers of the Ensign Blend are open all day. Another difference between "regular" morning glories is that the Ensign grows in a nice tidy mound, which makes it a great annual groundcover. The Ensign Morning glory displays flowers that are 1 to 2 inches across with three different flowers; white with yellow center, intense rose with bright yellow/white starburst patterns and royal blue with the same center pattern. Plant the Ensign Blend in the spring after the last average frost date. Plants started too early are less vigorous than those started later. Locate them in full sun in well drained soils. This morning glory prefers slightly alkaline to very acid soils. This excellent vine will cover fences and trellises, grow as ground cover, or hang in large baskets or pots. ... find out more

Amish Paste has few seeds, solid flesh, and is large for a paste tomato. If you are making a tomato sauce or canning tomatoes, do not use a regular tomato! Amish Paste is the tomato to use. Amish Paste cooks down to a thick, creamy tomato sauce but also has a surprisingly sweet flavor that can be used for slicing also.
