Those are one of my favorite vines, Damian. I grow them every year, and also have customers who request them every year. I've even been almost "blessed out" when I don't have any more plants to sell them!

I really like putting a trellis up in front of the living room windows and planting the MoonVine on. The foliage tends to block the rays of the sun during the day, keeping the house cooler, and at night when the flowers bloom their perfume often blows into the house. What a treat!

Be sure to save the seed pods that form after the flowers fade...that is your stock for next year.

Hope all is well down your way!
