Oenothera Hookeri

Description

Numerous, very large (three inch), fragrant yellow blooms ageing to orange over a long period in summer. Furthermore, this "Evening Primrose" produces flowers, contrarily, in the day time!

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.
