Hi, Jill, The issue you bring up is leaf scorch, and there could be several reasons. One reason might be that your plant is getting too much or too little water. Puzzling, huh? We thought so, too, but morning glories need well draining soil—neither too sandy, in which case water would run through it, nor too thick/composted which would cause water to puddle and not drain. (If you are using a container, does it have adequate holes?) Morning glories are tropical plants, so they need a lot of direct sun. Is yours getting about 8 hours of sun? You did not say where you are, but it is early in the northern hemisphere growing season and, depending on your location, it may be that the Sun is still too weak to enable the plant to thrive.
