Grandpa Ott's

An old Bavarian variety that was given to Kent and Diane Whealy in 1972 by her grandfather, Baptist John Ott, who lived on a farm near St. Lucas, Iowa. In my opinion the most beautiful of the morning glories. The beautiful deep purple flowers have a reddish purple star in the center. Vigorous plants are covered with flowers for most of the summer until a hard frost. Self sows even in Manitoba. Annual vine. Sun.
