Moss Rose is a daily flowering plant. The flower has a specific time to bloom. The flower is usually in full bloom at 10 o'clock in the morning. It is a very common house-plant in India. It requires almost no attention and spreads itself very easily.
We called it the Japanese Rose here. You have captured the beauty of these flowers excellently.
