Moonflower puts out a seed pod later in the season. Just collect the seeds after the pod has dried out. My plant gives me a ton of seeds. I just dug up one this evening that had self-seeded and transplanted it.

This was my moonflower from last season.

JJayroe,

Thanks so much for the info, that I was looking for...Re: puts out a seed pod later in the season! I was doing some research here on DG about the pods and was missing that information.... I actually took apart one pod that was a bud, just to find out if that was a seed pod or not ...(lol) This is my first time growing them without thinking they are weeds....(lol) and not pulling them out by mistake.... ;)

Your Moonflower is beautiful :) What is the name of it?

((Tks, again for replying to my post))) You made mah day~
