Caltha sagittata is a low to medium height, rhizomatomous perennial herb with ivory (or pale yellow) hermaphrodite flowers, belonging to the Buttercup family. It grows in clusters in sunny wet places in the Andes and related mountain chains. It has a disjunct distribution concentrated in the Southern Cone of South America. It is by far the most robust of the Southern Hemisphere Caltha species (section Psychrophila), and also the one with a distribution which extends furthest North. Grow it in full sun and loam soil. In UK gardens it is fully hardy throughout the UK (RHS H7). It works well for cottage and informal garden and wildlife gardens. It tolerates soil of any pH, poorly-drained conditions and south-facing, east-facing and west-facing aspects. Plant in well-drained soil in a suitable position. Water during establishment.

Caltha sagittata is a perennial herb from the Ranunculaceae family, thriving from rhizomes. Characterized by its distinctive arrow-shaped leaves, it stands out during early spring when it produces cup-shaped blooms.
