I planted quite a few of the Moon Flowers.... The first time I planted them.. I thought they were weeds, and yanked them out
then saw the huge flower hanging at the end of the vine... gosh! :( (lol)

Your welcome, and (Tks) for the nice words :) Im fairly excited about growing theses for the second time... The first time, I planted them... I mistakenly thought they were the biggest monster weeds, I ever seen! (lol) after I pulled them up, I noticed the large flower hanging at the bottom... :(

Yep, but if you give me a bit of time like the end of the evening, I'll see if I have a package.... to trade for some seeds? It will be the same ones as photo...

Also, I had to string up (thin) fishing line to attach the vines with twist ties.... I wanted to paint the fence..but, thought why not just grow flowering vines? ;) I used the office kind of thumb tacks to attach the fishing line. (Horizontally)
