I am sure there were a few green-fingered puzzlers who saw all of these “Trelis beauties” immediately, but I needed a hint to get going and JASMINE confirmed what we were searching for.
I had never heard of MOONFLOWER before; sunflower, yes – but not moon… After Googling it, I realized it was a plant I recognized and have seen often, but didn’t know the name of it until now. Thank you, Strands, for expanding my knowledge base.
How did you do today? Let me know in the comments below.

Johnny is a freelance pop culture journalist who has been writing about the internet, music, football and famous people since the iPhone was just a twinkle in Steve Jobs’ eye. Previously known by the pseudonym the Pop Detective, his journalistic career began making up stories about Madonna’s addiction to sausage rolls (this is not true by the way). A man of few talents, his career is rich and various and includes the highs of interviewing Elton John and Blur; and the lows of interviewing Right Said Fred, appearing on a Channel 5 documentary about Peter Kay, and fact-checking the instruction manual for a German cooker. Somehow still affording to live in North London he is at his happiest riding his bicycle and shouting at pigeons.
