Default Ae Ae + Full Moon... WOW

Spent some time this weekend sitting in a chair in my garden with the full moon lighting up the whole place.

One of my Ae Ae's is about 8ft tall now and I sat under its leaves and the moonlight was shining right through them and it was so enchanting and beautiful!

The color variation from the shades of white, gray and green filtering the full moon was awesome!

Anyone else with an Ae Ae notice this or am I just crazy in love with my plants? haha

Yes, you are crazy in love with your plants, and I suspect all of us are the same way! What a lovely picture you painted. I wish I could have been there. I can imagine how beautiful it was. I go out at night too to the garden sometimes, and it is a serenely quiet beautiful place to be. Some flowers really release their scent at night too, more so than during the day, in order to attract the hawk moth and other nighttime pollinators.
