Sow the white morning glory seeds in the prepared soil, spacing them about a few inches apart and covering them with a thin layer of soil. Water gently to moisten the soil. Water the seeds regularly to keep the soil moist, but avoid overwatering as this can lead to root rot. Once the plants are established, water them deeply once a week.

Make sure you grow in a location that receives at least 6 hours of direct sunlight per day and has soil that drains well. Fertilize the plant with a balanced fertilizer once a month during the growing season to promote healthy growth and flowering. To keep the plant from becoming too bushy and to encourage more flowers, prune back the stems as needed throughout the growing season.
