On June 21st Angela and I attended Tony and Linda's wedding in Markham.

The weather was very nice, and the wedding was held at a golf course. While we were waiting for the ceremony to begin, we noticed these flowers nearby. They looked really nice, and a few of us wondered what kind they were.

After some searching around, I'm pretty sure they are a variety of Oenothera Fruticosa, otherwise known as "Evening Primrose". I think this variety is usually referred to as "Fireworks Sundrops", because of the bright red bulbs.

If anyone knows more, please leave a comment!
