Missouri Evening Primrose (Oenothera macrocarpa), also known as Sundrop or Yellow Primrose, is an ornamental perennial prized for its large bright yellow blooms and spreading ground cover habit. This live plant clump produces decorative flowers throughout the blooming season, ideal for rock gardens, borders, dry landscapes, and ground cover planting.

The low-growing spreading habit forms an attractive carpet of green foliage with vibrant yellow flowers that open prominently during the blooming season. Missouri Evening Primrose is drought-tolerant and performs well in sunny garden spaces, suitable for cottage gardens, pollinator gardens, and low-maintenance landscapes.
