native wildflower
Local uncultivated blossom
A native wildflower is a flowering plant that grows naturally in a particular region without human cultivation, having evolved there over thousands of years rather than being introduced from elsewhere.
The term distinguishes indigenous species from ornamental or invasive plants: The meadow was full of native wildflowers.
Gardeners increasingly plant native wildflowers to support local pollinators and wildlife.
