Aureolaria Pedicularia Subsp. Typica

Common evening primrose, scientifically known as Aureolaria pedicularia subsp. typica, is a delicate flowering plant that thrives in open, sunny habitats across North America. Its name reflects its blooming habit, which occurs in the late afternoon and evening, attracting nocturnal pollinators like moths. This species is notable for its slender stems, lance-shaped leaves, and clusters of yellow flowers that bloom in late summer. Despite its modest appearance, it plays an important role in supporting local ecosystems and biodiversity. The plant's resilience and adaptability make it a common sight in meadows and along roadsides.
