Where to start in Rogers County
If you have only one spot to fill, sun all day is where Rogers County gives you the most rated choice (55 plants), and Common goldstar (Hypoxis hirsuta) is the easiest start on that list. Stays soggy is the hard one here: 17 rated plants, so for that spot it is worth asking a local native-plant society about the 122 unrated natives too.
