Some moonflowers tonight =^..^=

Bartlesville, OK(Zone 6a)

My moonflower vine has been blooming really nicely for a couple of weeks. It sure takes it's time to get going. I am hoping there will be time for the seeds to develop. Most years they don't make it.

I go out after dark and take these pictures with the flash. LOL

Here are some pictures I took with a flashlight instead of the flash just for fun. Made the bloom look blue and like it was floating...

They are so pretty. Mine is in a shaded part of the yard and will stay open a little longer now that it is getting cooler.

Thanks for the pictures.
