Oenothera pallida
Oenothera pallida
Pale evening primrose is a hardy western native that thrives with minimal care in well-drained, sandy or rocky soils. Plant in a spot that receives partial sun and water sparingly, as it is adapted to semi-arid conditions. Its fragrant white flowers open in the evening, making it a wonderful addition to a moon garden or naturalized border.
