White Moonflower Morning Glory Flower Seeds 25 Count "COOL BEANS N SPROUTS" Brand. Home Gardening.

Ipomoea alba, sometimes called the tropical white morning-glory or moonflower or moon vine, is a species of night-blooming morning glory, native to tropical and subtropical regions of North and South America, from Argentina to northern Mexico, Florida and Puerto Rico. As the name moonflower would suggest, many varieties open only at night. Long, white petals slowly unfurl as the evening comes, eventually opening into trumpet-shape blooms. Once morning arrives, the flowers curl up, reverting back to their closed form. Moonflower is a self-seeder, so if you don't want it to return next year, pick off the spent flowers so that they don't form seed pods. The plant is usually grown as an annual, but it is a perennial in the tropics.
