Moonflower - Evening Morning Glories - Annual Vine In Bloom - Late September 2024
Yesterday, I posted a photo of my tallest Nicotiana Jasmine in bloom that was direct-sown in our sideyard flower garden . I mentioned that those seeds came from Nat's Mom and that she grows Nicotiana every growing season. That wasn't the only packet of seeds she shared: she gave one of the kids a packet of "Evening Morning Glory" - Moonflower. I didn't post about it, but I also direct-sowed a few of these seeds. They're BIG. Like cherry-pit-size. I tucked them into the bed and forgot about them. Moonflower - or Evening Morning Glories are a vine and have big blooms. But, they're ephemeral. The Observant Gardener has a post up titled "Be Patient With Moonflowers" that overviews this flowering (annual vine) and the features.

This is not an easy plant to germinate, but it is worth the effort.... ...A unique feat
