Great Willowherb
The great hairy willow-herb is native to Europe, unlike the evening primrose which originated in North America. In fact, the great hairy willow-herb was eventually exported to the USA. It has many strange local names, such as codlins-and-cream, apple-pie and cherry-pie. It grows throughout the Netherlands along banks, in ditches and reed marshes. Great hairy willow-herb strongly resembles fireweed... © Copyright Ecomare (licence)
