Enjoy your landscape in the evening by planting a moon garden filled with white flowers that stand out as dusk gathers. Be sure to include fragrant flowers such as flowering tobacco (Nicotinana) (pictured) or moonflower vine (Ipomoea alba) that release their scent in the evening to lure the moths that pollinate their blossoms, both easy to grow annuals. Perfect along the edge of a patio or other outdoor seating area, a moon garden is ideal for gardeners who want to relax and smell the flowers after a long day at work.
