The Moonflower, 'Ipomoea alba', has twisted buds that unfurl at dusk to reveal huge white blossoms that are deliciously fragrant. Locate this fast growing vine on a porch, near an entrance, or under a window where you can enjoy its evening performance and heady fragrance. The flowers unfold in 2 to 3 minutes and is an event worth inviting guests. The flowers only lasts for a single evening. The Moonflower is a very tender perennial grown as an annual in all but tropical climates.
The Moonflower does not like to dry out, so water frequently. Moonflowers seem to bloom earlier and with more blooms when they are constricted to a pot. Aim the vines in the direction you want them to go by twisting them on to a trellis or other structure. Plant in the spring after the last average frost date. Plants started too early are less vigorous than those started later. Moonflowers are used for pots, baskets, climbing up fences and trellises and for ground covers.
