Our Ipomoea alba has been flowering every night (ironic for a member of the Morning Glory genus to bloom in the evening, but that is why this species is named Moonflower!).
What I thought was tomatillo has been blooming, but our flowers are lavender-purple. On the Internet the flowers are yellow. So I have to check what species of Solanaceae this actually is.
Passiflora quadrangularis is growing happily and has a dozen buds ready to burst open. We are trying to learn whether they open in the evening, at night, or very early morning.
Three different kinds of tall shrubs or small trees have sent out tiny white flowers. We will be trying to identify these species so we can post photographs.
It is nice to have a Mayan medicinal plant garden in Guatemala City, with sun almost every day (though we did have two days of misty night rains last week, a surprise in the dry season).
No snow most years, indeed to the contrary, the Volcano Fuego (visible on the horizon) spews out fiery volcanic black sand!
