Don't the roots of the MG choke out the iris rhz?

The Morning Glory is actually in a container so I can control the amount of sun it receives. They typically don't grow/do well here in South Florida (Zone 10).

Hm . . . . . looks like I'll be potting MG cuttings today.

That sounds like a good plan. I especially like the Mount Fuji Morning Glory because the flowers are quite large (3-4 inch diameter) and they stay open the entire day. It also has variegated foliage It does seem to be a slow grower though (at least for me it has). Heres a picture from this morning of another color in the Mount Fuji Series. This is Morning Glory Mount Fuji Sky Blue.
