Caltha Palustris – Marsh Marigold

Caltha palustris (Marsh Marigold) is a vibrant, moisture-loving perennial known for its bright yellow, buttercup-like flowers that bloom in early to late spring. Thriving in wet habitats such as pond edges, marshes, and bog gardens, this native wildflower provides an early nectar source for pollinators. Its glossy, rounded green leaves add texture even after flowering. Easy to grow and deer-resistant, Marsh Marigold is a great choice for naturalizing in damp areas, bringing a cheerful splash of color to the spring landscape.
