These are known as vespertine flowers and one of these is Night-scented stock. |
There are also slightly mystical animals, Blood Red Zebra, the animal painted on a red background, and Vespertine, a big cat with psychedelic eyes. |
As the other one danced around a fire that kicked away the vespertine dark, my companion passed me a clay goblet of spirits. |
The illusion that the viewer shares this vespertine light with the painting evokes not merely a sense of spatial unity but a temporal unity as well. |
In both forms of this interesting plant, the medium-sized spider-like flowers are closed from morning until late afternoon when they open to attract vespertine insects. |
I read of vespertine flowers, night bloomers like four o'clocks, opening like mouths in evening prayer. |
