You have a good idea for a couplet by describing moonflowers. The one questionable item you have is your word "ambler". The verb "amble" is defined as "to walk slowly and casually".. I have never heard of flowers walking; so I don't believe "ambler" is an appropriate word here. Perhaps "dwellers" would fit in your couplet better.
