Description: PALE EVENING PRIMROSE A great little night blooming perennial that has a strong scent of almonds. Also known as White Buttercup or Sundrops. This is a hard-working plant. Easy to grow from seed. Will start blooming 8-10 weeks after sprouting. Full sun or partial sun. Not real picky about soils. Doesn't do well in extended soggy conditions. This is a long lived, tough as nails plant that has a extensive root system making it very drought tolerant and an excellent choice for erosion control. Only gets about 12" tall but spreads out sideways via the root system. This strain of primrose also does well in containers. The flowers open in the evening and were thought to be phosphorescent because of their bright glow. Used to line walkways to help see the path at night. Blooms continuously from early summer through fall. The flowers are short lived so don't make very good cut flowers. Pretty much a carefree plant after established. Light water if no rain and a little fertilizer. 300+ Quality seeds. Thank You! Oenothera pallida. U.S. Native Wildflower. Perennial. Full sun / Part shade. Spring, soil temp 68F+. Sow-Press 3 seeds per plant into soil,9"-12"apart. Don't cover, needs light to germinate. Keep moist. Germination 14-28 Days. Thin to one seedling (the best).
