False Oxlip




Still finding new plants as I walk around the woods around Morpeth. False Oxlip (Primula x polyantha) is a hybrid between Cowslip and Primrose and occurs occasionally where both plants grow. I found this small clump flowering in Postern woods near Morpeth castle.

  1. We had some of these at Low Newton on Sunday Nigel. Lovely flowers amongst Primrose and Cowslip.

  2. Quite a coincidence looking at the same plants in different areas at the same time!
