$8.99
Marsh marigolds are hardy and quite common perennials that can be found throughout the whole northern hemisphere, thriving in temperate zones.
Caltha palustris has leathery, light green, round leaves and large, golden-yellow flowers in late spring through early summer. It emerges quickly in the early spring, immediately followed by the flower buds. It is unpalatable to herbivores, but the seeds are eaten by the Wood Duck, Sora Rail, and some upland gamebirds, as well as by small rodents.
This is a very nice early spring plant for shallow water, water margins, ponds or water gardens, wet or boggy soils, rain gardens, and wet ditches.
