Rosy Evening Primrose
From LoveToKnow Garden
Rosy Evening Primrose (Ce. Rosea) - There are several forms of this name quite worthless, but there is also a very beautiful perennial rosy form, which seems to show that the plant may vary a good deal in its native country. The one I have found so useful is less than 1 foot high and of easy propagation and culture in ordinary soil.
Ce. SpeciosaA handsome plant, with many large flowers, at first white, changing to a delicate rose. The plant is erect and its stems almost shrubby, 14 to 18 inches high. A true perennial, valuable for borders, or the rougher parts of the rock garden in good loam. It is a native of N. America, and is increased by division cuttings, or seeds, but does not seed freely in this country. Its variety, rosea, is also to be recommended.
