Missouri Primrose, Oenothera missouriensis: perennial, up to a foot tall, but larger plants often sprawl out to as much as a foot and a half wide. It blooms from April to July. The yellow blooms can be four inches across. Can be found in exposed limestone and caliche or in some prairie areas. It tolerates well-drained sand, limestone or caliche soils and prefers full sun. Not the best photo, because the flowers were beginning to close.
