Not much action, but these were planted years ago and keep spreading. They sit below our front porch. Enjoyable for a couple of months each year.

Beautiful!

Very nice. No Mexican flower can survive up north where I live, but the pretty bright yellow Missouri Primrose does well here year after year.

That looks like a nice flower to have, any scent?

We have an evening primrose that grows wild here, yellow flowers open in the evening, close in the morning. We have had some come up in our yard from what ever source, not our planting and sometimes they will come back for a few years then nothing???? No where near the number of blooms that you have but they get about 3' tall.

No sent - at least not noticeable! The flowers stay open day and night. Petals close a little when it gets cold at sunrise. open right away when sun hits them.

This is the Missouri Primrose that grows here. The flowers are quite large, 2-2.5" across. But, like all wild flowers, it blooms only one round in the season.

The IL evening primrose taken today. Not a spring flower here.

I'd didn't check the seed pods but they may not have dropped them yet....
