Now found mostly in southern England, this butterfly's caterpillar feeds on cowslips and primroses.

"I collected cowslips and elderflowers to make ice cream for the summer."

The machair, the great grass carpet that covers almost everything, has cowslips, primroses and wild hyacinths pushing up at the spring sun.

“Up, Beetle, and to the cottage for cowslip, mugwort, and pepper. By the Fourteen Holy Helpers, Joan will have to sneeze this baby out!”

Come to think of it, she had heard of yellow flowers called cowslips; maybe this was their special flower.
