Marsh Marigold (Caltha palustris) plants
Price range: £1.25 through £3.95
Marsh Marigold (Caltha palustris), also known as Kingcup, favours damp habitats such as marshes, fens, ditches, and wet woodland. It is an early-flowering wildflower, producing large, bright yellow blooms that attract many insects. Caltha palustris grows throughout the UK and Ireland, though it is now less common in lowland areas due to the draining and resowing of damp meadows. Its vibrant flowers add colour and ecological value to wetland habitats.
Warning: This plant is toxic if consumed and should not be eaten by people or animals.
