Key pattern

Alternate, often toothed leaves bearing a pair of small glands at the base of the blade, on herbs and shrubs; regular, five-petalled yellow flowers open for only a single morning before wilting by afternoon.

Flowers typically open freshly each morning and wilt by the same afternoon, timed tightly to the activity window of their specific pollinators.
