Oh, directly beneath the pumpkin fruit, one can see the Luffa's slender vine and smaller leave (photo above). Have a good day gardening everyone.

Oh, just a note on National Pollinators Recognition Days; those valuable pollinators work hard in nature. I am an advocate of these tiny little workers. By doing so, I tried to avoid the over-use of chemical in the garden when I can. And I practice hand pollination when I don't see those bees/moths and sometime ants frequenting my flowers.

*Did you know, night pollinators pollinate these fragrant flowers? BT, surely rid off the moths/larvae of this particular, specialized pollinators for night blooming flowers such as these angel trumpets.

1. A cultivar angel trumpet; its fragrant emits during the night/early morning hours to attract pollinators.
2. A home-grown hybrid that I have hand-pollinated several years ago. This is one of my daughters' favorite flowers (I think). I don't have a name for it yet.
