Moonflowers are revered throughout many cultures as a medicinal or sacred
visionary plant. Because they only bloom at night, they are a metaphor for the
fact that out of the darkness comes creative blossoming.
The Moonflower is an apt addition to Luna’s Flora series, as the Moonflower’s
large, white trumpet-shaped blooms start to open at night under the moon.
A sphinx moth poises at the edge of the moonflower's bloom at the sound
hole while the same flowers twine down the fingerboard. Leaves and flowers
strategically mark the 3rd, 5th, 7th, 9th, 12th, 15th, 17th, 19th and 21st frets.
