How to Grow and Care for Blazing star

Adonis blazingstar (Mentzelia multiflora) is found in the American southwest. The leaves of this plant are very thin and hair-like, which causes them to stick to skin and clothes very easily. This quality gives it the common name, Adonis stickleaf. Its yellow flowers, attractive to bumblebees, open only in late afternoon and close again in the morning.

Blazing star is named for its yellow star-shaped blossoms that bloom in summer fall and fall. This showy wildflower is indigenous to western North America where it tends to grow in sandy and rocky habitats.

Whitestem blazingstar (Mentzelia albicaulis) is an annual herb from the drier regions of North America. Its leaves form a rosette at the base of a stem that can reach 43 cm tall. The plants are covered in stiff, hooked hairs that some have taken to calling 'Nature's Velcro.'

Golden bartonia is a popular choice among gardeners. With large yellow blooms reaching almost 8 cm across, that's no surprise. Interestingly, the sweet-smelling blossoms, which are produced throughout the summer, open during the nighttime and close around noon the next day. This annual can tolerate heat and wind, but not wet feet.

Mentzelia decapetala (commonly known as tenpetal blazingstar, evening-star, candleflower, gumbo lily, or chalk lily) is a herbaceous biennial or short-lived perennial with large white flowers that bloom at night. It is native to dry areas in the western United States.
