Blue My Mind® Dwarf Morning Glory (Evolvulus hybrid) has true blue flowers and fuzzy, silver-green foliage. It is very heat tolerant once established. The dwarf morning glory is long blooming, from spring to frost. It does not need to be deadheaded. The flowers are open early in the morning and close in the afternoon or in cloudy weather.
The dwarf morning glory is used as a ground cover, edging plant, or mass planting. It can also be grown in a container as the spiller. It is native to Brazil so does well in the heat of the southern United States. It is also drought tolerant once established.
Blue My Mind® Dwarf Morning Glory Care
Although the dwarf morning glory will grow in average soil, it does best with an application of compost or a slow-release fertilizer when planted. It does not need deadheading. The young plant needs an average amount of water. The adult plant is drought tolerant after it is established but will look better and flower more if watered regularly. The plant needs to be planted in full sun to thrive.
The dwarf morning glory blooms from spring to the end of summer. It needs to be protected from even the lightest of frosts, so you will need to cover it with mulch when one is coming. Remove the mulch after the frost. The plant is a perennial but is treated as an annual in most of the United States.
This plant is listed as rarely getting eaten by deer, which makes it deer resistant. No plant is truly deer proof, because they will eat about anything when hungry enough. But these plants are not eaten very often, and deer would prefer other plants over morning glory.
Blue My Mind® Dwarf Morning Glory Spacing
At 4-8 inches tall, with a spread of 8-16 inches, it is a short, fat plant. Because it is fat, it needs to be spaced 8-12 inches from other plants or it may grow over them.

Plant Addicts Warranty - 1 Year (Extra Purchase Required)
We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die.

The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs. SImply let us know if your plant has died within 1 year of receiving it and we will get you a new one shipped out as soon as possible (depending on the time of the year and availability).

Plant Shipping
Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.
Winter to Early Spring
We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.
Summer
If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.
Fall into Winter
We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!
Winter
Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!
Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
