Funny you mention moon flowers-- I assume you are talking about what we call Devil's Trumpet. I have a bunch of those white ones planted around a red Japanese maple and really really need to get rid of them. I just recently found out that they are very toxic to kids and pets and I have both. Apparently some people use the seeds of those for the hallucinogenic properties as well. Who knew a flower contained naturally occurring atropine.
Yep that sounds like what I've described Never heard them called Devil's Trumpet before. They open up at dusk. Their bright white blooms stand out even in the dark. I didn't know they contained hallucinogenic properties also. Wonder why those hopped up rabbits invading my space didn't bother them like they did the Morning Glories? Learn something new everyday!
