Jeff,

This may sound stupid and obvious (I am known for this) but why not take 
your trusty UV flashlight (of course you have one of these, no?) your 
digital camera and a tripod and walk around in the evening with folks 
from Texas Parks and Wildlife. If you can't get to Texas, or some 
particular flowers that might be interesting aren't in bloom you can 
cheat and go to a Botanical Garden or some such place.

Of course, I would council using the real plants in some kind of light 
box set up, rather than photos, but that's just me. A bunch of years a 
go in an exhibit on tobacco use we actually grew tobacco so visitors 
could see the plant that all the fuss was about.
