True to its common name, this wildflower is most at home in water gardens or at a pond’s edge were it gets lots of moisture! The yellow blossoms resemble buttercups, and are held above glossy leaves. These glowing yellow beauties are a sure sign of Spring! Though difficult to start from seed, the Master Gardener will find it worthwhile.
