About Oenothera stricta Link

Oenothera stricta Link, commonly called the fragrant evening primrose โ€“ a name shared with other species in its genus โ€“ is a flowering plant species belonging to the Onagraceae family. It is native to the Desventuradas Islands, Chile, and southern Argentina, and has been introduced to many regions across the globe. Both the unimproved wild species and the cultivar 'Sulphurea' are sold by commercial plant suppliers. The Royal Horticultural Society recognizes both forms as good plants for attracting pollinators.
