#1: night bloomer

Posted on 2006-06-22 02:07:03 by lissadell

I have a plant in my garden whose blooms open at dusk and die the next
morning. The leaves are very similar to a dandelion; the flower is
pale yellow with four petals forming a petunia-like bloom. Thanks for
any help, I am in Ontario, Canada

Thanks, but I don't think that's it. There is only one bloom per stem.
