Evening Primrose Oenothera biennis

As its name conveys, the Evening primrose blooms in the evening, and its flowers close by noon the next day. for this reason, the Evening Primrose can be very difficult to locate in the middle of the afternoon! But if you are on a walk along a country road at sunset, you are very likely to spot this pretty little plant. The flowers are soft and delicate, the roots edible, and the seeds are an important source of food for many bird species.
