The Moonflower, scientifically known as Ipomoea alba, is a night-blooming plant belonging to the morning glory family. It features large, white, fragrant flowers that open in the evening and close by morning. This plant is native to tropical and subtropical regions and is often grown in gardens for its beauty and scent. Moonflowers thrive in well-drained soil and prefer full sun during the day. They can climb trellises or fences, making them popular for vertical gardening. The flowers attract nighttime pollinators, such as moths, contributing to the ecosystem's biodiversity.
