Does anyone know the names of large night blooming flowers? Or large blooming flowers that close at night?
It's a neat idea, but unfortunately most plants that bloom at night only do so once per blossom. Ditto for the ones that close up at night. If I think of one that doesn't follow that rule, I'll come back and edit, but all of the ones that come to mind immediately are one-time things.
Reply:The only one I know of is the moonflower. It blooms only at night and has a wonderful fragrance. The ones I have seen are typically low to the ground and resemble an Angel's Trumpet. What a wonderful and unique idea!!
Reply:Moonflowers are beautiful or Night Blooming Cereus
Reply:Trish is right, few if any would work. Thinking outside the box, the closest thing I could suggest would be to "surgically" place the ring in an unopened bud of the Datura flower, a night bloomer, large enough for a ring. Timing is the problem. They tend to begin opening in late afternoon or shortly after picking. If your serious about this you can do a few trial runs to make sure it works. Another flower large enough for a ring would be a Hibiscus. If I was close, I'd give you a hand. Just the quirky little science fair project I like. RScott
