This beautiful vintage print depicts Primula Officinalis, also known as Primula Veris or the Cowslip, a beloved flowering plant of the primrose family. Originating in Europe, this primula species blooms in late winter and early spring, bringing a burst of color and life to the landscape. The Cowslip is characterized by its yellow, cup-shaped flowers with a distinctive sweet fragrance.
