Description
Cowslip Plug Plants Primula veris
Common names include, common cowslip, cowslip primrose, key of heaven, bunch of keys, herb Peter.
Brighten your garden, woodland floor or wildflower meadow with this distinctive perennial native wildflower. Flowering in the spring, cowslips provide early colour and interest to formal and informal settings and their bright yellow bell-shaped flowers are an important early food source for bees, beetles and butterflies.
Cowslips grow in full sun or semi-shade on well-drained or heavier soils.
Our strong, healthy plants are grown in 40cc cell trays and are ready to be planted in their final position.
Sourced from native seed and grown for us in the UK, our plug plants are an ideal way to boost species in a wildflower meadow or to easily establish plants in your garden or in areas where seed germination can be erratic.
We recommend planting 5 plugs per metre square in groups of at least 3 per species for a naturalistic look.
