Primula vulgaris AGM

One of the earliest flowers to chase away the winter gloom. Folklore tells us to "Guard the house with a string of primroses on the first three days of May. The fairies are said not to be able to pass over or under this string". Traditionally a herald of spring and forthcoming summer, gathered on May Eve, nowadays a protected native species - it is forbidden to pick it from the wild. Luckily it is popular as a staple of cottage garden plantings for its sweetly scented pale yellow flowers from a clump of tongue-shaped leaves from as early as March to May, as well as its edibility- flowers and leaves will brighten up any salad and it makes a lovely tea. Good pollinator plant and quite deservedly holder of the RHS Award of Garden Merit.

The much loved, native woodland primrose, a gem of a plant that, if it weren't so common here in Somerset and the surrounding areas, would be held in much higher regard. Very easy and an important source of early nectar.

An absolute must for a native, wildlife and or woodland garden.
