Primrose, Jordviva (Primula vulgaris)
A compact, semi-evergreen perennial bearing masses of scented, pale yellow flowers in spring. Numerous cultivars have been selected for garden planting, often derived from subsp. sibthorpii or hybrids between the subspecies; these and other garden hybrids are available in a wide range of colours, including white, yellow and red, or brown and red in all gradations as well as dark red, pink, purple, dark brown and dark blue, and with an extended flowering season. Both flowers and leaves are edible, the flavour ranging between mild lettuce and more bitter salad greens.
