Description
Oenothera glazioviana
These “magic” flowers put on a show you have to see to believe! New blossoms open every evening at dusk like clockwork, the large yellow flowers unfurling their petals in just seconds. Their namesake, Tina James, was a garden educator and writer from Maryland, who discovered the flowers blooming in her neighbor’s cow pasture. Southern Exposure Seed Exchange originally introduced the variety to the public in 1987. Tina James’ Magic Evening Scented Primrose germinates best after 30-60 days of cold-moist stratification. Biennial.
Here’s a video of the magic primroses in action.
