This inflorescence appeared in a patch of otherwise quite normal P. veris. Is this uncommon and might it have been caused by cold damage?
My primroses are flowering better than I have ever seen here, albeit a bit late.

I have something very similar in my garden. I think its a hybrid
-
Could it be fasciation? The very thick, tall stem and enlarged inflorescence might suggest that?

I thought fasciation, but it's hard to tell for certain from the photograph.

Mine in 2010

Lots of wild cowslips round here (and some hybrids in the garden). The ones that have seeded themselves into the borders are often beefier, with more spherical heads, than those growing in grass, presumably just a response to less competition/greater availability of nutrients. Erle's looks much sturdier though.

Thank you everybody. I will see if it does it again next year.

Still sunny and warm
