Wild Morning Glory

Hedge Bindweed should be watered deeply and thoroughly once or twice a week. The plant prefers soil that is evenly moist, which means letting the top 1-inch of soil dry out slightly before watering again. During the hot and dry sumner months, the plant should be watered even more often, up to every couple of days. During the cooler fall and winter months, water once or twice a week, ensuring that the soil dries out between waterings.

Hedge Bindweed (Calystegia sepium) is a plant species that prefers full sun or partial shade. It does best in full sun with at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight each day. However, in areas with extreme heat and temperatures, partial shade is recommended to prevent the plant from wilting and developing leaf burn. In the early morning or late afternoon, the plant should not be exposed to direct sunlight, as this can cause photosynthesis to occur too rapidly.

Hedge Bindweed (Calystegia sepium) requires moderate levels of pruning. Pruning should be done at least once a year during the early spring before new growth begins. Once new growth begins, the plant should be pruned back to about a third of its existing height, removing any dead or dying stems and unruly growth. This will help to limit the spread of the vine while still allowing enough energy for the roots to reorganize and regrow. Additionally, prune any crossing stems to avoid complex tangling. By doing this, the remaining stems will become thicker and have more foliage to create a dense, hedge-like structure.
