Meadow evening primrose produces cheerful yellow flowers that open in the evening, attracting night-flying moths and bees. It thrives in average garden soils with moderate moisture and partial to full sun, making it easy to grow in borders or naturalized meadow settings. Once established it is largely self-sufficient and may self-seed to form attractive colonies.
