A friend gave me a plant which produces many yellow single cup shaped flowers at every sunset . The flowers fade very quickly lasting only one night but they are replaced with a new crop at every sunset. I live in the North East of England. Can anybody tell me the name of this plant please? Thank you Tom
Yellow flower comes out at sunset?

Try Evening Primrose, Oenothera section Oenothera - there's maybe half a dozen species that you might have.
Possibly four o'clock, aka mirabilib, marvel of peru.
I provided enough information for you to suggest a name and I now know that name is the flower in my garden. Your help is welcomed but you can keep your sarcasm.
