Oenothera missouriensis - Missouri Evening Primrose

A bright and cheerful addition to any rock garden or sunny border, this low-growing perennial boasts vibrant yellow, cup‑shaped blooms set above silvery‑green foliage. Each blossom typically opens in the late afternoon and stays open through the night, offering a gentle fragrance that charms evening pollinators like moths and butterflies. The plant forms a mat‑like rosette and spreads outward, creating a natural, spreading groundcover effect. Exceptionally drought tolerant and deer resistant, it’s both picturesque and easy‑to‑grow.
