Oenothera speciosa For those who love the Even- 
ing Primroses, the best of good news! This lovely 
one is now available in rare rose pink. Flowers to 
three inches wide open at evening and remain 
open through the morning. Stems somewhat de- 
cumbent, to 12” tall. Very long season of blooming. 
Native to the moister eastern border of the 
Plains and east, and not particular as to soils, it 
should be readily grown in any weil drained gar- 
den. Of its colonizing habit Mrs. Wilder remarked, 
“So altogether engaging that one is tolerant.”
