The Soft Sponge Morning Star

The sponge gourd plant blooms with gentle yellow flowers that look like little suns resting on green vines. Their petals are thin, soft, and slightly crinkled, opening wide in the morning like they’re greeting the day. A fresh golden color glows at the center, inviting bees with its warm, sweet scent.

These flowers sit lightly above big, heart-shaped leaves and sway with even the smallest breeze. They don’t stay for long, but while they bloom, they turn the garden into a lively, sunny place. Quiet, delicate, and full of life that is the charm of the sponge gourd flower.
