Gourd flowers


Gourd flowers are white. You see a few pollinators visiting them during the day.

At night they are busy though. This is when they release their scent and their white petals show up well on a  moonlit night.

If you have a red torch go and have a look at the nocturnal pollinators.

Some varieties prefer banks and others flat ground. A colony can be very busy and do a great service to your garden and orchard.
