Description
Caltha Palustris ‘Alba’, commonly known as White Marsh Marigold, is a beautiful early-season marginal pond plant that produces crisp white flowers with bright yellow centres. Flowering from early spring, it brings a fresh, natural look to pond edges just as the season begins to wake up.
This compact, clump-forming plant has rich green, rounded foliage and thrives in shallow water or consistently damp soil, making it ideal for pond margins, bog gardens, or wet borders. It’s a reliable grower that returns year after year, helping to soften pond edges and create a more natural appearance.
Low maintenance and hardy in UK conditions, Caltha ‘Alba’ is perfect for adding early colour and interest while also supporting wildlife such as pollinators.
