Marsh Marigolds follow-up
Hi Again,
Well, after a few days with no response from the group, I figured nobody out there had experience with marsh marigold plants. I took a chance and divided them as I would a hosta and it worked out well. So... If anyone is looking to divide a marsh marigold, simply take it out of the pot, pull or cut it apart at the roots and plop it in another pot (or bog) as I have done. Hope this helps other marsh marigold fans. Alan |

Marsh Marigolds follow-up
Alan, keep me posted on your Marigolds, when I divided mine, it died.
Course the divides I sold from it thrived. Not sure what I did to mine, but I know the new one is going to have to be very big before I try dividing again, and then I'll keep half, and hold the other half, till I know they've both survived. I can tell you one thing regarding MM, they will survive 0.3% over the winter. This is the first winter I've brought the salt up so high, I did it after lilies and the other plants had gone pretty much dormant, then I reduced it just before things started to perk up. Only plant that seems to have reacted poorly is the variegated water celery, but I see I have some small starts on it, so HOPEFULLY, it will come back. I know some people grow this like a weed, at least the green ones, but I divided this variegated version two years ago and it hasn't been the same since. ~ jan (Do you know where your water quality is?)
