I bet they do certainly well in Florida as they enjoy tropical conditions, beware that they can also become invasive both through seeds and natural stem rooting.
I would be interested in knowing if they go in the wild in Hawai as we have a rather similar climate and terrain and it does find its way out of gardens here.
i also have a moon flower vine and it is full of blooms, this is my first summer for them. i'm rushing out in the mornings to see how many blooms i have. how will i know when the seeds will be ready to come off and what will they look like? help anyone?. thanks a bunch.
Hi Lizzie
As this is a moonflower it opens at sunset so you should rush in the garden when it becomes dark, the flowers open at an impressive fast speed (for a flower!). The seeds will be OK when the pods will be dry enough to be crushed with your fingers, they have to bcome hard ot be kept.

Sorry, I missed your question earlier...No, they don't grow in the wild here, but they would if someone just planted them around and then the seeds spread. They are very easy to grow.
Good thing then, here it has spread in the wild and it can ne large enough to overshade and slowly kill trees by light deprivation...the soft wins again on the hard!
