First Moonflower Bloom Of The Year!

14 years ago

Hey everyone!

My first moonflower opened tonight! The scent is wonderful as is the flower itself. My niece and nephew were in awe at how quick it opened! A definite favorite in my garden! There are seven more buds on the vine and two of them look like they might open tommorrow night!

It sounds like quite a sensation! I need to grow this one next year.

I had a hard time getting these started before, but now they just jump out of the ground. :) Dena
