Moonflower

Los Angeles, CA

Does anyone have any experience growing moonflowers? My seedlings are finally starting to take off in their peat pots, and I plan to use them along a chain link fence. I'm wondering if they'll bloom in anything less than full sun.

I have grown them in LA & FL, and they will be happy with less than full sun. The flowers will open late in the afternoon and be gone next day. They are fragrant and beautiful. Here's a photo from some of mine a few years ago.

How pretty! I planted some this year but had no idea they would bloom this large or this full. Now I really can't wait. Mine are starting to bud. Thanks for sharing.

Those are beautiful! I'm trying to cover a chain link fence on the cheap, and I think they'll be fine. I may interplant them with some of the colored morning glories.

I'm growing the white and lavender together. They don't get sun till about noon then till till almost dark. They bloom just fine. Here's a pic, we have them right next to our porch.
