Yellow Marsh Marigold (Caltha palustris) Lusitania Meadow
Marsh Marigolds grow in swamps, marshes, wet meadows, and along
streams and brooks, so it is fitting to find clumps of Marsh Marigolds
growing in Lusitania Wet Meadow. The leaves are heart-shaped and
toothed at the edge. They can be gathered and eaten as greens, but
require many short boilings with water changes between boilings.
