Flower Detail

Oenothera macrocarpa

Missouri primroses. Clear, medium yellow. These tend to do well for a year or two and then die off. I've started planting by seed in my rock garden -- they gently reseed. They don't tend to get very large, but pop up here and there with their beautiful blossoms.
