Dear Mr. Garg,
Sorry for acting like a Doubting Thomas, but do you have a picture
of the flower peeping inside the tube, or any other picture? My doubt
arises from the following:
1. In daylight, this night-blooming flower looks surprisingly fresh.
2. Tube of the flower doesn't look long and slender, although one
can't be sure because the view is obscured.
3. Flowering period of Night Glory (also called Midnapore Creeper), is
August-September.
I am wondering if it could be Ipomoea obscura. I have seen it
flowering in Delhi in December-January.
