In the evening the flowers close and open again at the first sunlight. The Polygala myrtifolia can grow over 1 meter high.

Care
The Polygala myrtifolia is a grateful bloomer and very easy to care for. It is a tender shrub and therefore requires winter protection. Place the shrub in a pot, tub or on the patio so the plant can be moved indoors in winter n a light conservatory or greenhouse. For best results, grow Polygala myrtifolia in a large container in full sun, in moist, well-drained, humus-rich soil. To keep Polygala myrtifolia compact, the plant can be pruned. This can be done in spring or after flowering.
