Oenothera fruticosa 'Fireworks,' commonly known as Sundrops, is a striking perennial that features a profusion of bright yellow, cup-shaped flowers that bloom abundantly in late spring to summer. The flowers, which have a characteristic star-like shape, open in the evening and add a vibrant splash of color to the garden, often attracting pollinators such as bees and moths. 'Fireworks' is known for its compact, bushy growth habit and slender, lance-shaped leaves that provide a soft, fine texture in the garden. This cultivar is drought-tolerant and thrives in well-drained soils, preferring full sun for optimal bloom production. With its cheerful yellow flowers, low-maintenance nature, and long blooming period, Oenothera fruticosa 'Fireworks' is a perfect addition for brightening borders, rock gardens, or cottage-style landscapes.
