I started my Morning Glories from seeds. I had beautiful, full vines on my trellis but did not have any flowers. What did I do wrong?
A common problem is not enough light. Did your plants get at least 4-6 hours of sun a day? Too fertile soil also can inhibit blooms. These articles should help:

My shaggy dwarf morning glory is in a pot on my deck. I’ve been watering lightly every morning. Zone 8. Recently it has not produced as many flowers. Should I use a mild liquid fertilizer once a month?
All annuals benefit from fertilizer application. A slow release fertilizer will fertilize every time you water and lasts two to three months in a container. If you prefer, you can use a liquid fertilizer. Read and follow all the product directions for how much and when to apply.
Hello, I had a plain violet coloured morning glory and later the plant self-seeded. Now, some of the flowers that are blooming (on the new self seeded plant) have white designs/patterns on them. I tried to google why this is happenning but couldn't find anything. I am attatching photos of the flowers. Thank you in advance!
Morning glories do some interesting things from seed. There is quite a bit of genetic variation, so you can see some traits that may have been genetically locked up waiting to be expressed. I've seen some weird ones. I've seen speckles, all the way to A single portion of the fused petals being white all of the way down. I've seen color changes, and plants with many colors on the same plant. Who knows!? Maybe the next generation expresses other different traits!
