Hello, I'm not a huge gardener (as you can probably tell) and I just
have one quick question. When I was growing up, my grandfather had a
bush or shrub of some sort in his back yard that bloomed each day in
the warmer months at the same time each day. It was amazing to watch
each flower open up each evening. Does anyone know what this would
have been and if they are common, easy to maintain, commonly
available, etc.? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

What color and how big were the blooms? The first thing that comes to my mind
is Datura, which has giant white blooms. A mature plant can look like a small
bush.
