A Resilient Native for Pollinators and Nighttime Blooms

Add a touch of golden beauty and ecological value to your garden with Oenothera biennis, commonly known as Common Evening Primrose. This biennial wildflower is renowned for its bright yellow flowers that open at dusk, attracting nighttime pollinators.

  • Glowing Blooms: Fragrant, yellow flowers bloom from summer to fall, opening in the evening and attracting moths and nocturnal pollinators.
  • Tall & Upright: Reaches widths of 1–2 feet, with a striking vertical presence perfect for meadows, borders, and naturalized plantings.
  • Pollinator & Wildlife Favorite: Provides nectar for bees, butterflies, and moths, while seeds are an important food source for birds.
  • Drought-Tolerant & Hardy: Thrives in dry to moderately moist soils under full sun. Hardy in USDA Zones 4–9.
  • Medicinal & Edible Uses: Traditionally used for herbal remedies, and its seeds are rich in beneficial oils.

Ideal for wildflower gardens, pollinator habitats, and tough growing conditions, Oenothera biennis is a must-have for those looking to support biodiversity with a low-maintenance native.
