Where does the marsh marigold grow?

The marsh marigold loves a moist, nutrient-rich soil in a partially shaded or slightly sunny location. It grows naturally on wet meadows, in floodplain or swamp forests and on the edges of various bodies of water.

If you want to plant the marsh marigold in your garden, then a small pond is best, alternatively a bed with moist, rather heavy soil. Most varieties prefer a location in shallow water. Good neighbors are the swamp forget-me-not and the jester flower.

The essentials in brief:

  • Flowering time: March to April or June
  • Flower color: bright yellow
  • sunny to partially shaded location
