Oenothera stricta
Species of plant / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Oenothera stricta, the fragrant evening primrose (a name it shares with other members of its genus), is a species of flowering plant in the family Onagraceae.[2] It is native to the Desventurados Islands, Chile, and southern Argentina, and it has been introduced to many locations around the world.[1] The unimproved species is available from commercial suppliers, as is a cultivar, 'Sulphurea'.[2][3] The Royal Horticultural Society considers both to be good plants to attract pollinators.[2][3]
