Diohio's Garden

Sundrop, Common

Genus: Oenothera.

Species: Oenothera tetragona.

Free from Debby 1998. Spreads fast. Basal leaves are evergreen. I've spread this all over the yard in many places. It really brightens the gardens. I love the flame-red buds before the bright yellow flowers. Deadhead and sometimes you'll get a second blooming.
