Brugmannsia

Often this wonderful species flowers heavily concurrent with a full moon. Why this should be I can't imagine, but it is especially delightful to smell its intoxicating fragrance in the brilliant illumination of the moon's light. When we finally got the greenhouse rebuilt and the plants moved safely back in just before the serious onset of last winter's cold, I felt as though my family was secure against all charges. I even felt the need to leave the upper door between the greenhouse and my bedroom wide open so that I could smell that scent if I chanced to wake during the night. What a voluptuous sensation.
