Our campaign originates from Estonia, where cowslip is a beloved spring flower that is also used for tea. While in Estonia there are plenty of cowslips to pick, it is not so everywhere, so before doing that, make sure it is okay where you are. Here's a nice thread about cowslips:.

Our tip would be to always take a step forward after observing a plant. This way you can make sure it's really a different plant individual.

We have over 800 observations from all over Europe. In some places cowslips are almost finished flowering, in others cowslips are starting to flower. Here are some nice photos from our observers from UK, Macedonia, Estonia and Latvia.#lookingforcowslips #cowslips #citizenscience

First cowslips are already flowering in UK. Can you determine if this one is an S- or L-type?.
The cowslips (Primula veris) 🌼 have emerged at my local country park (Reddish Vale) 🏞. They are definitely one of my favourite native wildflower 😍 Absolutely stunning 💛. 🌼🌼🌼. @LGSpace @CheshireWT @theNPMS @LookforCowslips
