Felicia - I received seeds for the Evening Primrose in a group swap. I was reading about it and it said that it could be invasive. It sounded so lovely though that I am going to pot it up in a large container with some other plants. Thanks for posting those photos! Nice, very nice plant!!! :-)

I recently added Moonflower to my garden and was totally blown away by that blooming before my eyes. The flowers are huge white flowers on a vine. Just amazing! It was like a double WOW! LOL Do you have any of them in your garden? If not, when I get some seeds from mine I am willing to share some with you. D-mail me if you'd like some of those. They need something to climb since they are vines. I have heard they have a nice fragrance, too, but they are at the back against the fence and I can NOT get that close to them because of all the other plants in front of them. Here's a photo of one of the blooms!
