Lysimachia vulgaris, also known as yellow loosestrife or garden loosestrife, is a perennial flowering plant in the Primulaceae family. It was previously classified in the Myrsinoideae subfamily but has since been merged into the Primulaceae family. This tall plant has an upright habit and produces bright yellow flowers from June to August. It is native to Britain, Eurasia, and North Africa, but has been introduced to North America for its ornamental value. It grows best in moist habitats and is an important nectar source for bees. However, it can also be considered a noxious weed in some areas due to its invasiveness. Yellow loosestrife has a long history of medicinal use and is still used today for its anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and expectorant properties.
