So interesting. My mom has a lot of old gardening books she left in the basement of the house we now live in here in Indiana. I can’t wait to go through them. You have inspired me to search.
I bought that book back in 2014 after you wrote about it on your blog. It is as you say, a good chat with a fellow gardener. Morning glories--not to be confused with bindweed--are not a problem around here, due, I think, to our shorter growing season, and perhaps also the damp clay soil. They will grow just fine the first year, but don't reseed.
Yes, like most plants... one gardener's problem isn't always another gardener's problem. Here, morning glories can (and do) take over. Just ask my youngest sister!

Yes, search through those books. Someone is waiting for you to discover her (or him)!
