Every year my gardens deliver a few surprises. This year it is a cluster of tall and lush yellow flowers that I believe are called Evening Primroses.
The unique thing about this plant is that it blooms at dusk and remains open throughout the night, but with the first rays of the morning sun, the radiant yellow flowers collapse upon themselves like so many suttered umbrellas and die, only to be replaced by the next row of buds on the following evening. If you want to enjoy them, it's best to rise early!
