Yes, it's really beautiful—that's why its name in Spanish is Bella a las Once (Beautiful at Eleven). It's actually pretty normal for them to fade quickly; it's a flower with fleeting beauty. In fact, another name it goes by in Spanish is Amor de un Rato, which means 'Love for a Moment,' for that same reason. The nice thing is that it keeps blooming almost daily—just make sure it gets plenty of sun. ☀️

Thanks so much for stopping by my post. 🫧
