The vine type grows exactly like a morning glory and has the same heart shaped leaves, but they are much bigger. Not sure if you can see in my picture, but both morning glories and moonflowers are growing together. There is a definite difference in the size of the leaves.

I'm glad you're interested in them, I don't mind waiting all summer long for the first blossom, it's truly worth it! :thumbup:

Connie, ask your local nursery if they're going to have them next year. Most places don't carry them. Now would be the time to ask about them as they are probably planning for next year already.

I have some as well---grow them most years. So many people have not heard of them. Don't you just love their lucious aroma?

Are Moon Flowers the ones that bloom at night?

This reminds me so much of the flowers my momn had around our house when I was growing up. She called them Angel Bells. They only open at night and close during the day.

Are they the same flower????
