Description

The listing, MoonFlowers--50 Fresh Seeds has ended.

This auction is for folks with smaller areas to cover, since the plants need to be spaced one foot apart...
Night-blooming moonflowers make a geat landscape addition. Mine were growing 2 to 3 feet tall this last Summer, and they would load up almost every night with a load of pretty, white blooms that had a pleasant , light aroma...This is an annual plant, that will reseed year after year, eventually making a big patch of them if you so desire... Blooms will stay open on a cloudy day after being open all night .Plant directly into ground after danger of late frost is past. .
I have read that , with good care and fertilization,and in better soil than mine, the Moonflowers will attain 4-8 feet in height... I am on sandy loam soil that dries out fast, and I am in Texas, where the Summer heat is a factor they will tolerate, but not excell in.
Soak seeds overnight before planting about 1/4" deep. Supplement normal rainfall so the seedlings do not dry out.
Questions & Comments

An annual is one that grows, blooms and then dies...one year only. Isn't this right?? Does this grow every year without digging it up for the winter? That would be perannual - am I wrong??

They are annuals that the first hard frost will kill, but they drop so many seeds that they will come back next year---mine did.
Hope this helps.
