Interests	Shown is a moonflower from our gardens. The plant is called a moonflower because they bloom in the evening. They have large 4 to 6 inch fragrant, white or pink flowers on twining vines. The flowers open quickly in the evening and last through the night, remaining open until touched by the morning Sun. The leaves are rather large which allows the plant to be used as an annual in a northern garden. Propagation is usually by seed. I have read that Moonflowers should be planted when the Moon is new or increasing in light!
