Marvelous Moonflower
-
Like most varieties of morning glory, moonflower grows vigorously, even during the shortest growing seasons. But unlike common morning glory, moonflower's saucer-size, fragrant white flowers open in the evening.
It's not unusual for this climber to spread over 15 feet along fences or trellises in a single season. Plant the seeds in a sunny spot with soil of average moisture, and moonflower will produce all summer long until the first frost. Over-fertilizing moonflowers actually stifles bloom development. - Next: Lots of Phlox
