One of my favorites!, February 2, 2009
Submitted by ewizabeth from Near Chicago (read all my reviews) (read all my reviews)
"Growing moonflower in my N. Illinois garden (zone 5) is easy but I have to take a few steps to maximize enjoyment.

First, plant them near a door or window so we can enjoy the wonderful fragrance each evening.

Second, try to isolate them from anything that you don't want them to overtake such as lattices or patio furniture etc... In my experience they reach out and strongly "embrace" anything within reach.

This year I'm planting them in the backyard with their own support and safely away from other plants and structures.

They are truly lovely and a must for any garden!"

"I was very disappointed when I planted these seeds. Out of 3 packets of seeds, nothing sprouted or even germinated. Very disappointing."

Huge Beautiful Flowers, April 7, 2008
Submitted by Mxstressica from Ellicott City, MD (read all my reviews) (read all my reviews)
"The flowers begin to bloom at dusk and positively GLOW at night they are so pure white.

Once they really got started in the Summertime, we had flowers as big as dessert plates and several came out at a time each evening.

The leaves are larger and deep green and the flowers are much larger than a morning glory. The leaves and flowers are too large to fully enjoy on a small trellis - the vine looks best trained along a big fence or a large metal gate / garden structure.

It is also nice when it can be planted with other plants in front of it... it gets a little sparse at the bottom because it sends out the majority of the vines toward the top of the plant."

beautiful flowers and seed heads, February 10, 2008
Submitted by Gardenwithdogs from NJ (read all my reviews) (read all my reviews)
"I grow these vines on an arbor in zone 6/7 border with honeysuckle and fall-blooming clematis. Compared to standard morning glories, they have stronger, longer vines with darker thick leaves. The moon vines have huge white flowers that open in the evening. If you like to sit outside at night, these are the best flowers. B/c the seed heads are so pretty, I leave the vines up over the winter (haven't re-seeded), and use them with fir cuttings and boxwoods in Christmas wreaths. They are slow to get started, but this is one of my favorite flowers/vines."
