The evening primrose plant (Oenothera biennis) has beautiful yellow flowers that open in the evening and close during the day, hence its name. Although native to North and South America, it also now grows in Europe and parts of Asia.

Recommended to me as I appear to be in peri menopause and EPO has a long standing reputation supporting hormone health.
Capsule size is good for such a powerful dosage :).
Packaging is unusual and really attractive, very convenient it can be posted in the letterbox unlike most other supplements.
