Missouri Primrose

Oenothera missouriensis
Evening Primrose Family - Onagraceae

This Texas Wildflower is also called:  Ozark Sundrops and Evening Primrose.  One of the confusing things about calling a wildflower by it's common name is that you will run into the same name on several flowers, just like this one.  That is why scientist have given each flower it's own scientific name.  The scientific name will not be found on any other flower but one.  This Texas Wildflower blooms from April through August.
