Description of Caltha palustris 'Plena' (Double Marsh Marigold)

Caltha palustris 'Plena' is double marsh marigold. It keeps the same love of wet soil, but the flowers are fuller and more ruffled in early spring.

Appearance

It forms clumps of rounded leaves and produces double yellow flowers. It usually stays 20 to 40cm tall. After flowering, the foliage fills out and sits as a low green mound.

Care Guide

It needs saturated soil during spring to flower well.

  • Sun: Full sun to part shade.
  • Soil: Wet soil or shallow margins.
  • Water: Keep saturated.
  • Division: Divide after flowering to bulk it up.
  • Tidy: Remove tired leaves through the season.

Because it’s double-flowered, division is the quickest way to make more plants.

Suitability for Bog Garden

This suits bog gardens and pond edges where you want a showier spring plant. Put it near the front for best impact.

Keep it from being shaded out by tall summer growth.
