| Details |
Oenothera speciosa is a perennial with large cup-shaped flowers and spreading underground growth.
Botanical characteristics
It can cover more ground than the flowering stems initially suggest. Summer drought may bring dormancy rather than continuous flowering, while poor drainage is unsuitable. This seasonal behaviour matters when describing the species in a perennial seed assortment.
Spreading habit and pink selection
The listed Silky, Orchid Pink seed reference identifies the named pink selection for resellers.
