Marsh Marigolds (Caltha palustris) along the side of a brook this morning cast a nice reflection.

Ik denk wel het lievelingsgebied waar we regelmatig heengaan.
Zoveel moois te zien en te horen.

Marsh Marigold (Caltha palustris) is a member of the buttercup family (Ranunculaceae) and grows in wetlands. It is pollinated by numerous insects.

All members of this family contain the toxin protoanemonin, which can cause rashes and blisters on skin or more severe effects if ingested raw.

The plant is edible if the young greens are cooked, which neutralizes the toxins and it was called "Cowslip" in earlier eras.

The first Caltha palustris (Dotterbloem in dutch) blooms have arrived! 🌿✨ These bright yellow marsh marigolds are lighting up my pond, welcoming spring in full force. I love how they thrive in the wet edges, bringing a pop of color to the water’s edge.

Who else has spotted their first spring blooms? 🌼
