Evening Primrose Wildflower Seed Overview

One of the most startling wildflower displays on the prairie occurs when this species blooms in late spring. Packing vivid yellow blossoms over five inches across, Evening Primrose really turns heads! It can commonly be seen on road cuts and other rough ground, which makes it even more noticeable since there is no competing vegetation to block the view.

Evening Primrose is an annual wildflower with a fairly short bloom period. Its flowers may be seen in May and June, with the peak being mid-May. The individual flowers are only around for a day or so, which is common for most members of the evening primrose family. They first open in the evening and wither the following day. Sow Evening Primrose wildflower seed at 3 lbs per acre.
