Just to let you know, you mentioned that "touching the plant doesn't cause a rash." Well, my hands and fingers would strongly disagree with that statement! I was just harvesting some of the pods to store over the winter so that I could replant it in a different location next spring, and oh man.... my hands were on fire, and I immediately had a rash anywhere my skin came into contact with the plant. Washing with soap didn't help, but a couple Benadryl seem to be doing the trick. These are beautiful flowers, and I'll still keep them in my garden, I just won't be touching them any longer! :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07845589683900212791noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-944458889740456039.post-77307643412753803762009-08-08T18:43:02.035-05:002009-08-08T18:43:02.035-05:00@Kwizgiver, Glad you liked the video.

You're welcome for my comment and thank you for making that blog post about all the internet problems!<br /><br />@travelingman, I can imagine your Moonflowers taking over the railing! I am constantly cutting these back to keep the patio and sidewalks clear.<br /><br />@Allen, Now you will have to visit your friend at night to see the Moonflowers open! Most of the time it is so cloudy here that a few Moonflowers are open during the day.<br /><br />@TC, glad you like them, me too! I love the sunflowers too and love that they attract Cardinals.Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05514919047169081546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-944458889740456039.post-1385593274855296232009-08-08T13:49:01.489-05:002009-08-08T13:49:01.489-05:00John,

Now I know why. It amazes me how nature works. And you are right, Poisoned plants are the most pretty.Allen https://www.blogger.com/profile/02182296582387606080noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-944458889740456039.post-26973914678857507752009-08-08T12:21:43.040-05:002009-08-08T12:21:43.040-05:00John,

I used to have an arbor with a swing in the back yard and they completely took over the railing. I used to love sitting out there on the swing in the evening and watching them open.Travelingman Rickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12044448017559143638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-944458889740456039.post-5781538821473177352009-08-08T10:13:25.172-05:002009-08-08T10:13:25.172-05:00Love the video!
