Hi hive friends and @AmazingNature,
This is my entry on Amazing Nature Contest: Thematic Challenge.
We are all familiar with beauty of flowers, But I think buds also have some thing to say. Thank you @bucipuci for creating such an amazing contest. This contest paved a way to know more about buds.
10 O'clock flower
I have a small garden in my courtyard. And I always in love with this flower. 10 O'clock flower. This is native name and the scientific name is Portulaca grandiflora. Which is also know as Sunrose and Rockrose.The flower looks really tiny so it was hard to capture it's macro images by my smart phone.
There is 3 variants of this flower in my garden.
Rose
Red
Yellow
These flowers are easy to grow and no need of special care. They are very well adapted to our climate.
The name 10 O'clock, is because of the always blows at 10. It looks vey tiny buds in the morning but when the time reaches 10, they will raise up.
We use to provide a small amount of cow dung as the fertilizer, nothing more. And a flower will only last up to 2 days. There are a huge varieties of these plants are available in the market today.
these are a few more buds in my garden
Flowers have a great resemblance to our life cycle. Buds are the early stage or in other words our teenage. The period where we gain all knowledge and strength we need in the future. How strong they pass the stage of bud that strong will the beauty of flower. If it didn't get sufficient sunlight and minerals it may affect the flower.
Life of a flower is a miniature of our life cycle. We born and we die. So be energetic and enthusiastic in your teenage to be a bright flower in the future.
Thank you for your time😊
I hope you enjoyed it.🍀
