Linda: That's a beauty. I'm growing mooonflower bush for the first time this year. No blooms yet.

Tracy

Isn't that great? The first bloom is just a teaser as it only gets better and better as the rest of the summer progresses into fall!

I usually grow them every year although the spot that always did best for them has been taken over by a honeysuckle the past 2 years, so I've had to put them elsewhere with other vines. There is such a tangle of vines where they are that I'm not sure whether they made it through the scarlet runners, morning glories, and hyacinth bean vines but I'll see.

Don't forget to save the seeds!

Jenny, funny you should say that, I thought the same thing with the tangled mess of vines I have surrounding the Moonflowers but they made it. I'm still waiting for blooms from my Scarlet Cardinal Climber and Heavenly Blue MGs. I think my Grandpa Otts have run their course, they are winding down now, in fact, I collect some seeds from them yesterday. It's not going to be pretty on my balcony come late fall!

I LOVE moonflowers!
Too bad they don't last more than one evening...........
