Bring beauty and ecological value to your garden with Evening Primrose (Oenothera biennis), a classic North American wildflower known for its bright yellow blooms that open in the evening. These fragrant flowers attract night pollinators such as moths, as well as bees and butterflies during the day.
Evening Primrose is easy to grow and thrives in meadows, wildflower gardens, borders, and naturalized areas. This hardy biennial forms a leafy rosette the first year and sends up tall flowering stems the second year, producing abundant blooms from early summer through fall. It readily self-seeds, making it an excellent low-maintenance choice for native and pollinator gardens.
You will receive:
✔️ 200 fresh, viable seeds
✔️ Open-pollinated, untreated seeds
✔️ Carefully packaged for successful sowing
