I don't think Evening Primroses are supposed to bloom this early in the year, but if this isn't a Cut-leaved Evening Primrose, then I have no idea what it might be.
The four-petaled blossoms open fully in the evening, or so the books tell me. I photographed this in mid-afternoon, and the blossoms seem to have been fooled into partially opening, perhaps, by the heavy cloud cover.
Found in the former soybean field beside Deep River County Park.
