{"product_id":"marsh-marigold-caltha-palustris-bare-root","title":"Marsh Marigold (Caltha palustris) BARE ROOT","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOne of the first blooming spring flowers! Bright yellow flowers and green foliage are conspicuous, particularly when few other plants have put on growth. Like other spring ephemerals, it prefers to get full sun in early spring, and shade after trees leaf out. Not a true marigold as the common name suggests, but related to buttercups. A showy addition to edible gardens!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHIS SPECIES REQUIRES CONSTANT MOISTURE.\u003c\/strong\u003e It occurs naturally in wetlands and fens where roots have access to the high water table even in dry weather, so needs either a very high water table or constantly moist soil. May be cultivated in particularly wet rain gardens or irrigated beds, but ‘captive’ plants often find easy success on pond edges. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLight: Full Sun, Part Sun\/Shade, Shade\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSoil Moisture: Wet, Wet Mesic\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSoil Type: Muck, Shallow Standing Water\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHeight: 1'-2'\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBloom Color: Yellow\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBloom Time: Apr\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRoot Type: Rhizome\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNotable Wildlife Interactions: Flowers attract flies and bees.
