(5-7 sun/light shade)   90x60cm

The giant cowslip has similar candelabra-like flowers to other Asian primula species but altogether much larger in all parts, growing to 1m/3ft in ideal conditions. The large drooping heads of yellow, sometimes orange or blood red flowers on tall stems are held well clear of the foliage. Intoxicating spicy scent is an additional bonus and is carried for some distance. Will grow in shallow water but must have wet or boggy conditions if grown in sun.
