An ornamental evening primrose
This is planted in Tapawingo Park in West Lafayette, Oenothera macrocarpa. Picture taken May 29, 2010. Oenothera macrocarpa has not been found in the wild in Indiana, but it is native to regions west of the state. Other native plants that are used in the landscaping here are switchgrass (Panicum virgatum) and fragrant sumac (Rhus aromatica). You can find them planted a few steps away.
