Is anyone else growing "spinning primrose"? I've grown it for several years, but never hear anyone else mention it. It is one of the most fragrant plants I've ever smelled. One plant is perfuming a large part of my back yard right now. It is a species of Oenothera. It is biennial & blooms at night & on cloudy days. The hummingbird moths like it. The first year it produces a rosette of leaves close to the ground. In its second season it sends up 3'-4' flower stalks. The blooms are yellow & smell wonderful. I only had to plant them one year-it reseeds very well! Carla
