vespertine flowers

Flowers that are fragrant in the evening and night are called vespertine flowers. Most of these plants don't look like much by day, but come nightfall they come into their hour of glory by exuding rich odors. If you spend a considerable amount of time outdoors at night on a deck or patio, why not plant some of these fragrant flowers to enjoy.
