Morning Glories

Last Aril and May I planted some morning glory seeds. "guaranteed" to grow fast and tall. They are supposed to crawl up my fence to hide my half grown yard. Alas, 5 months later they are only 2-3 inches tall and I have had 4 little flowers. When we do get a flower it is a momentous occasion and I must document with the camera lol. I do think they are lovely and I will try again next year because I love vining flowers. I don't know if they are cut out for the valley here but hey I got a couple, therefore...a success??
