Description

Primula veris (cowslip, common cowslip; syn. Primula officinalis Hill) is a flowering plant in the genus Primula of the family Primulaceae. The species is native throughout most of temperate Europe and Asia, and although absent from more northerly areas including much of northwest Scotland, it reappears in northernmost Sutherland and Orkney.[1] This species frequently hybridizes with other Primulas such as Primula vulgaris to form False Oxslip (Primula x polyantha) which is often confused with true Oxslip (Primula elatior) which is a much rarer plant. Botanists have found no less than twenty-five of these hybrid-forms in the Austrian Alps.

Je natuurfoto's zijn een plezier om te zien, stuk voor stuk juweeltjes. Je moet dit compliment maar opvatten als een excuus dat ik niet elke foto afzonderlijk van een comment voorzie, die teksten zouden wat eentonig worden. Maar ieder keer kijk ik er weer met groot genoegen naar, wees daarvan overtuigd.
