IX NOCTURNAL OR HAWK-MOTH FLOWERS FLOWERS which bloom in darkness seem weird and unnatural. Most conspicuous blossoms are creatures of sunshine and warmth, and seek to allure diurnal insects, while many of them close at the approach of night. But nocturnal flowers are adapted to pollination by moths, chiefly hawk-moths. How this reciprocal relation became established it would be hard to tell; but their forms, time of opening, and colors easily distinguish them from the day-bloomers. Consider, for instance, the thorn-apples (Datura), which have long, slender corolla tubes some six inches in length. (Fig. 65.) They are "children of the dewy moonlight," and fill the evening air with their sweet fragrance. Their large, pale, salvershaped blossoms "serenely drooping awaken visions of silent awe," and it is at once apparent that these stately flowers do not invite the visits of bees. Some fifty years ago Felicia Hemans was a popular poet in New England, and while she probably knew nothing of the mysteries of flower-pollination, in her lines to Datura arborea she instinctively recognizes the fact that bees are not found in this domain of shadows: "Majestic plant! such dreams as lie Nursed, where the bee sucks in the cowslip's bell, Are not thy train: ---those flowers of vase-like swell, ... worthy, carved by plastic hand, Above some kingly poet's tomb to shine In spotless marble." In their relations to flowers moths may be divided into two groups, the highly specialized hawk-moths (Sp/iingidce) and the other moth families. Many moths fly only on the rainiest and darkest nights. We should like to know more of the devious ways of these nocturnal wanderers amid the down-pouring rain. They seem a bit uncanny. Among the...

Book excerpt: In this eloquent plea for compassion and respect for all species, journalist and gardener Nancy Lawson describes why and how to welcome wildlife to our backyards. Through engaging anecdotes and inspired advice, profiles of home gardeners throughout the country, and interviews with scientists and horticulturalists, Lawson applies the broader lessons of ecology to our own outdoor spaces. Detailed chapters address planting for wildlife by choosing native species; providing habitats that shelter baby animals, as well as birds, bees, and butterflies; creating safe zones in the garden; cohabiting with creatures often regarded as pests; letting nature be your garden designer; and encouraging natural processes and evolution in the garden. The Humane Gardener fills a unique niche in describing simple principles for both attracting wildlife and peacefully resolving conflicts with all the creatures that share our world.
