Moon flowers, yes? My grandmother loved these, we have them planted in our garden 🙂

wow

By the way, is probably not a time-lapse. The flower opens that quickly in person!!!

Yes we had these when I was a kid and one day I just happened to be standing outside looking at them when they started opening and I almost fell down, I’d seen flowers opening in time lapse on TV and had no idea any actually opened that fast.

And it still LOOKS FAKE in person, like it opens in such quick, staggered jerks that you would swear it’s stop motion animation.
