There’s a flower in Vietnam called “Hoa Muoi Gio” “Bong 10 gio” “”hoa mười giờ” có lẽ vì hoa chỉ nở khi nắng cao lúc đứng ” I can translate it to English as “10 o’clock flower” hahaha I don’t really know the exact name or if it exist anywhere else beside Vietnam where used to live. This flower is special and unique because it only blossom about 10 o’clock AM, but really it’s not really accurate at 10 AM, but it does blossom during this time because the sun light is just right, if not then it won’t blossom at all – so I guess that’s why people call it 10 o’clock flower. So far I can only find this flower where I live in Vietnam Cu Lao where it has plenty of sun light and water and moisture and mist during the night til morning time. This flower when blossom it’s bright pink colors beautiful 🙂 According to some website it said the name or family of this flower is “Portulaca grandiflora”
