Know before you buy
Pearly Gates is a vigorous climber that typically reaches heights between 10 and 15 feet. Because of this, you will need a sturdy trellis, fence, or arbor to support their growth throughout the season.
Yes, these are container-friendly. Just ensure your pot is large enough to accommodate the root system and provide a vertical support structure, like a small trellis or netting, for the vines to climb.
While no plant is completely immune to hungry wildlife, Morning Glory Pearly Gates is generally avoided by deer. This makes them a reliable choice for gardens in areas where deer pressure is a common concern.
For the best results, plant them in a spot that receives full sun to partial sun. While they can tolerate some shade, they require plenty of light to produce their signature large, white blooms from summer through fall.
While Morning Glories are technically tender perennials in very warm climates, they are grown as annuals in most regions. They complete their entire life cycle—from germination to flowering and seed production—within a single growing season.
Sow the seeds at a depth of 0.5 inches. Space them 4 to 6 inches apart to ensure the vines have enough room to establish themselves as they begin to climb.
