Moonflower Seeds – Night-Blooming Fragrant Climbing Garden Variety

Overview

Moonflower Seeds grow into vigorous climbing vines that unfurl large, white, fragrant blooms at dusk, filling the night garden with a soft glow and sweet aroma. Known botanically as Ipomoea alba, Moonflowers are close relatives of morning glories but bloom in the evening instead of at sunrise.

Perfect for trellises, fences, balconies, and patio containers, these romantic, fast-growing vines thrive in warm weather and attract moths, butterflies, and hummingbirds. Their luminous flowers make them an unforgettable addition to any moonlit or night garden.
