Oenothera v. Sunset Boulevard
$3.00
Well branched plants with deep green foliage support striking cup-shaped flowers in whorls of vivid orange when fully open and fade to deep apricot-red. Like many Oenotheras, the combination of open and spent blooms on maroon tinged foliage is stunning. This very choice plant makes a wonderful addition to the perennial border and because it flowers in its first year from sowing, it also makes an attractive annual. Grows to 24 inches tall in full sun and blooms from June to September. Hardy to zones 5-9, Deer Resistant. Pkt. 25
