But around one after noon
the flowers shut their flowers as if it was nighttime. In
shady places they are still open.
Have the Finns advanced their clocks an hour for the summer as many
countries do? If so the flowers may be closing when the sun is at its zenith? Why
not before? Do they re-open as the afternoon advances and they pass into
shadow? An interesting observation that ought to prompt some research.
