Fugacious (adjective)



https://www.collinsdictionary.com/dictionary/english/fugacious



Fugacious (in American)





  1. (Botany)
    falling soon after blooming, as some flowers




Reference: LIBRARY NEW YORK BOTANICAL GARDEN




One of these plants
was called Liriosphodelus phoeniceus and Lobel states that the
names "Hemerocalis" and "Ephemerum" were commonly ap-
plied to this particular plant because of the fact that the fugacious
flowers
last for scarcely a day
. Of the flower behavior of the
other type mentioned under the name Liriosphodelus lit tens lili-
florus, the Lemon Daylily of today, Lobel makes no mention.




Reference: https://www.vocabulary.com/dictionary/fugacious




In this way Masdevallia, Sobralia, and other fugacious flowers may be used for decorative purposes for two evenings at least, but in the absence of immersion they would wither in a very short time. O'Brien, James




Couple of more entries on Google.





Few other terms, which describes ephemeral life span of flowers are as follows:



Nyctigamous




A reference to flowers that open at night and close during the day; nygtigamy.




Nyctinasty, Nytinastic, Nyctinastism



Reference: https://wordinfo.info/unit/2563/ip:5/il:N





  1. Orientation movements of plants during the night.


    Nastic movements of plant organs in response to the changes in light and temperature that occur between day and night (and vice versa). Examples are the opening and closing of many flowers and the folding together of the leaflets of clover and other plants at night.
