Oenothera Californica

Description

Large, floppy, delicately-perfumed yellow flowers with prominent, pollen covered anthers, adorn this strong-growing 'evening primrose'. Self-seeds gently where it is happy.

Sowing Advice

Sow immediately at any time onto preferably a soil-based compost, covering with fine grit to approximately their own depth. Germination MAY be quicker if kept at 15 to 20 degrees C. but many seeds WILL NOT come up the year they are sown, needing winter chilling after sowing, and ONLY come up with natural spring germination.
