Wildflower - Evening Primrose

I found this Evening Primrose (Oenothera biennis) blooming along the cabin driveway, just off Joyce Road. The Evening Primrose is a native North American wildflower.



The flowers partly close during the day, and fully open in the evening. With our current hot/day weather the flower wasn't easy to locate and photograph.



Since the flower is a night bloomer, this plant attracts a variety of moths but other insects will take advantage of an open flower.
