Caltha (Marigold), Ranunculus (Buttercup) & Trollius (Globeflower)

Marigolds are perennial, herbaceous plants from usually wet marshy spots throughout temperate regions in the the Northern and the Southern hemisphere. Most have bright colored flower cups in white, cream to butter-yellow and decorative, round, glossy, serrated leaves. All are easily cultivated in any rich, always moist soil in a partially shaded to sunny spot. Ideal for the edge of a pond or watercourse, will even grow in shallow water.
Buttercups are herbaceous perennials with showy and quite large flowers in early spring above usually very large, more or less round leaves. They are easily grown in a fresh spot in any humus rich, well drained soil in partial shade or full sun. Excellent as a border plant for a pond or a small water course.
Globeflowers are herbaceous perennials from temperate regions in the Northern hemisphere with showy and quite large flowers in early spring above usually very large, more or less round or strongly dissected leaves. They are easily grown in a fresh spot in any humus rich, well drained soil in partial shade or full sun.
Sow seeds flat in any humus rich, always slightly wet soil in pots outside in a protected spot. Seeds require a prolonged cooling period prior to germination in late spring. Carefully transplant the fleshy rhizomes as soon as leaves have withered in autumn.
All are USDA Climate Zone 6.
