The Bindweed Convolvulus plant belongs to the Convolvulaceae family and native to the Mediterranean area.Convolvulus is pronounced [kon-VOLV-yoo-lus] and comes from the Latin “convolvere,” which means to twine around.It’s a fitting name for the dwarf morning glory plant, as it can twine around other plants as it spreads along the ground.The attractive convolvulus tricolor is a dwarf variety of the plant and often goes by the common name dwarf morning glory.In some places, people call it field bindweed.
The dwarf morning glories don’t need frequent watering. During warmer parts of the summer, check the soil every few days.
It grows well in dryer, sandy regions and likes lots of sunlight.Placing the plant in full sun to partial sun encourages better growth and longer blooms.
Liquid fertilizer may be added throughout the year, but not every time. Use the fertilizer every second or third watering.
Warm, well-drained soil is best for the dwarf morning glories.Adding a little bit of sand to the soil also helps recreate the native conditions.
As an annual, you don’t need to worry about frost, but it grows best at temperatures in the mid-60s to upper-70s.It should also be kept away from drafts if possible.
