Marsh Marigold 9cm Pot Plants Caltha palustris

Common names include mayflower or kingcup.

Marsh marigold is a bright, cheerful perennial native to wet meadows, marshes, and stream banks. Its vivid yellow flowers appear in early spring, providing an important nectar source for bees, butterflies, and other pollinators. Thriving in moist, boggy conditions, it's ideal for water gardens, wildlife-friendly landscapes, and naturalistic planting schemes.

Preferring consistently moist, well-drained soil in full sun to partial shade, marsh marigold brings early-season colour and interest to cottage gardens, ponds, and damp garden corners. Its striking blooms create low-maintenance yet visually impactful displays that enhance any wildlife garden.

Sourced from native seed and grown in the UK, our 9cm pot plants are an ideal way to enhance your wildflower meadow or establish resilient plants in your garden or areas where seed germination can be unpredictable.

For the best results, we recommend planting 3 plants per square metre, grouping at least 3 of each species together to achieve a natural, flourishing look.
