watering question

When is the best time to water flowers? Morning, afternoon, or evening? Or does it not really matter?
Thanks!

Re: watering question

Unless we're in a drought, or they are freshly planted, I don't water my flowers. But when I do, it's usually late evening, after the heat of the day is done. A lot of water can be lost to evaporation when it's very hot.

If I had plants that were prone to mildew, I would water them early morning instead.

Re: watering question

flowers are definitely best watered in the evening, bc they are so delicate any water left on the petals will leave dead spots as the sun beams on them and heats the water
