plants at night

these are the plants outside my home at night...
They look like silent witness to the darkness around them.




weird how only now that I notice that the madre de cacao (Gliricidia sepium) "closes" its leaves when it's night time.



the other is dama de noche (Cestrum nocturnum) - very fragrant at nighttime. Reminds me of my childhood days as there was a plant in our neighborhood. I still have yet to find the dama de dia (Cestrum diurnum) to have a within my fence. I wonder if it is also fragrant at daytime?
