Primulaceae Gallery - wild flowers of the Primrose family

Many of the most recognised and loved wildflowers of our northern European countryside are among the close to 3000 species recorded in the family Primulaceae. Flowers in the Primrose family generally have five petals.

These thumbnail pictures have links to larger photographs and information about each of the species, their habitat needs and an identification guide.

We have used the scientific names to identify species in this table, but if you prefer to use common names we have also listed all species covered on the First Nature website in alphabetical order of Common Names...

There is also the option to see all species listed in order of Scientific Names or Botanical Families or Dominant Colour.
