Moonflower
Moonflowers are used for pots, baskets, climbing up fences and trellises and for ground covers.
The Moonflower, 'Tpomoea alba', has twisted buds that unfurl at dusk to reveal huge white blossoms that are deliciously fragrant.
The flowers unfold in 2 to 3 minutes and is an event worth inviting guests.
Locate this fast growing vine on a porch, near an entrance, or under a window where you can enjoy its evening performance and heady fragrance.
Plants started too early are less vigorous than those started later.
