(Primulaceae - primrose family family)
About 165 species of mostly annual or perennial herbs. Several species are cultivated as ornamentals.

ciliata peren • 3-4' • zones 3-8

fringed loosestrife


native, ground cover, moist - wet, sun - shade
N Amer

Yellow flowers frac34 - 1" across, appear in summer on the upright stems. Spreads moderately fast, but does not tend to form large patches. Uncommonly effective at holding its ground and resisting invasion by other plants. This ability makes it a good choice where a low-maintenance, tall ground cover is desired. Very adaptable in its cultural requirements. Good in meadow plantings.
