Primula florindae

Primula florindae, the Tibetan cowslip or giant cowslip, is a species of flowering plant in the family Primulaceae, native to southeastern Tibet, where it grows in huge numbers close to rivers such as the Tsangpo.

In summer the flower stalks rise from basal rosettes of 5–20 cm (2–8 in) long leaves.

They bear clusters of 20–40 yellow, pendent, bell-like, delicately scented flowers with a mealy white bloom.

[1] The plant was first collected for western horticulture in 1924 by the British botanist Frank Kingdon-Ward, and was named after his wife Florinda.

This plant grows best in very moist conditions as its home is the margins of rivers.
