Linnaeus's flower clock
Linnaeus's flower clock was a garden plan hypothesized by Carl Linnaeus that would take advantage of several plants that open or close their flowers at particular times of the day to accurately indicate the time.

It builds on the fact that there are species of plants that open or close their flowers at set times of day.
