Hi Cat, yes I made it. LOL. I also Googled "Moon Flower" sometime around the first of June because I had given one of the plants that just sprout up to a neighbor. Her husband's mother came for a visit and said Uh Oh, did you know that plant is poisonous so when he told me, I looked it up and yes, indeed everything about this plant is poisonous. Can cause hallucinations and I guess for years and years teens growing up tried to make tea out of it and unless treated in an emergency room it can be fatal. The first time Amiyah shows any kind of interest towards any of them well, she doesn't get too close because of the bees. She is more interested in picking my vegetables whether they are ready are not. But at 21 months I sure am proud. She eats Cherry Tomatoes, green beans and Fried Zuchinni like a trooper and I make her a red sauce from my canned tomatoes, peppers, zuc's, celery, mushrooms, onions any thing that I don't go to waste, blend it up so there are no chunks and she's gotten in her veggies. Is Cleman around today? I just wanted to mention to him that was my dad's name too. He's gone but every year I plant those marigolds with the tomatoes and their names are Clem Sr. Clem Jr. and Clem III. I inherited those green thumbs from him. And there going to be passed down to this one.
