Fernleaf Yellow False Foxglove
Aureolaria pedicularia
Overview
Fernleaf Yellow False Foxglove (Aureolaria pedicularia) is an annual or biennial wildflower, native to North America. Growing up to three feet tall, the leaves are divided in a fern-like pattern and the yellow tubular flowers appear in late summer. These flowers are pollinated by hummingbirds and bees, making them a great addition to any wildlife-friendly garden. The narrow buds appear in July and turn into blooms with purplish spots that surround a lemon-yellow center. After the flowers have faded away, they produce hard, papery seed pods that remain on the stalks all winter. Fernleaf Yellow False Foxglove tolerates woodland gardens with part shade and moist soil.
