Uvularia sessilifolia
Wild oats
 
Preferring part to full shade and moist, well-drained soils, Uvularia sessilifolia produces drooping, bell-shaped yellow flowers that are a favorite of pollinators like bees and butterflies. It’s a wonderful choice for woodland gardens, offering both beauty and support for local insect populations. The plant’s shaded habitat provides cover for various insects, including some moth caterpillars.
