Blue Dawn Flower is the perfect fast-growing solution to transform unsightly fences, walls, or slopes into a lush, flowering tapestry. This vigorous climber produces a profusion of stunning trumpet-shaped blooms each day from late spring through fall. The flowers open in the morning a brilliant sky blue with a pinkish-white throat, then gradually deepen to a rich violet-pink by afternoon before closing, creating a captivating daily color show. It dies back in winter but returns with even more vigor each spring, asking for little more than full sun.

Rapid, Season-Long Flowering: Blooms profusely from late spring to fall, producing large, colorful trumpets that open blue and fade to purple-pink through the day.
Fast, Screening Growth: A vigorous, quick-growing deciduous vine reaching 15-20 ft., ideal for quickly covering eyesores like fences or stumps.
Heat Tolerant & Low-Maintenance: Exceptionally heat tolerant and disease resistant. Simply cut back the dead growth in winter for a fresh start each spring.
Sun-Loving: Thrives and flowers best in full sun.
Versatile Cover Plant: Perfect for covering difficult areas, slopes, or creating a seasonal privacy screen on trellises and arbors.

Knowing how we measure the size?

When browsing our plants, you may notice size terms such as Gallon, Multi, or Stand. These describe how a plant is grown, containerized, or structured at the time of sale — not just its height. Understanding these terms will help you choose the right plant for your space and expectations.

🌱 Gallon Size (Container Size)

Gallon refers to the size of the nursery container the plant is currently growing in (e.g. 1 Gallon, 5 Gallon, 15 Gallon).

A larger gallon size generally means:
- A more established root system
- A sturdier plant
- Faster visual impact after planting
Example:
- 5 Gallon: Ideal for residential gardens, easy to handle, good balance of value and maturity
- 15 Gallon: More mature, provides quicker results in the landscape

Note: Gallon size does not guarantee a specific height, as growth varies by species.

🌳 Multi (Multi-Trunk / Multi-Branch Form)

Multi indicates the plant has multiple trunks or main stems growing from the base.

Commonly used for:
- Ornamental trees
- Feature plants
- Japanese maples, olives, crepe myrtles, etc.
Why choose Multi:
- Fuller, more sculptural appearance
- Strong visual presence even at younger ages
- Popular for design-focused landscapes

🌲 Stand (Single-Trunk / Standard Form)

Stand (short for Standard) refers to a single, dominant trunk with a raised or naturally formed canopy.

Commonly used for:
- Shade trees
- Street trees
- Orchard and structural plantings
Why choose Stand:
- Clean, classic tree form
- Easier clearance for walkways and lawns
- Preferred for long-term structure and uniformity

🌿 Choosing the Right Size

If you want instant impact → larger Gallon, Multi form
If you want long-term structure → Stand form
If you want flexibility and value → mid-size Gallon containers

Q: Is it invasive?
A: In some warm climates, Ipomoea indica can self-seed and spread aggressively. However, in many areas with frost, it is grown as an annual or tender perennial that dies back in winter, which helps control its spread. Check with local guidelines if concerned.

Q: How do I care for it in winter?
A: After frost kills the top growth, you can cut the vine back to the ground. In colder zones, it acts like a perennial and will resprout from its roots in spring once the soil warms.
