Butterbur Petasites hybridus
Status Green - Least concern
Best Time to See March, April, May
Colour Pink
Habitat Grassland
Fond of moist ground, this pink, tassled wildflower can often be found carpeting riversides and damp ditches.
With so many small flowers packed densely together, butterbur is very popular with bees. It is a great source of nectar early in the year, when wildflowers are still rather sparse.

Flower spikes appear before the leaves and have tiny pale pink flowers arranged down stems which are 10-40cm tall. The leaves are very large, sometimes almost 1m wide and are downy-grey underneath.

Where to find Butterbur
Butterbur is found throughout the UK, but is rarer in central and northern Scotland. It inhabits wet meadows, streamsides, roadside ditches and copses.

How's it doing?
This plant is commonly found in its preferred habitats.

Did you know?

• Its common name derives from its large, heart-shaped leaves that were used to wrap butter in the past.
• Its name is derived from the Greek petasos, meaning a 'broad-brimmed felt hat' which also refers to the enormous leaves.
• Butterbur spreads by rhizomes and large colonies of male or female plants are common.
