Look what we grew!

This morning i awoke to find that our Moonflower seeds that were planted late summer have bloomed. I've never seen this annual before, and planted it a bit late...but as the vine grew and trailed over our backyard wall, I waited in anticipation. The last few weeks, I had seen the flower buds growing. I had read these have a wonderful scent, but I did not notice it this morning. These are supposed to bloom at night, so i feel very lucky that it was still in bloom at 8:30 am. There must be a dozen more buds that will bloom in the coming days. I'm going to wander the garden at night to see if I can catch their scent, plant a few more this coming Spring in more areas of the yard...and enjoy our success.
