Marsh thorn blooms from July to September with small, lilac-pink flowers in white felt-like spikes on upright, square flower stems. Stachys palustris prefers full sun or partial shade and moist to wet, moderately fertile soil. Marsh buckthorn prefers to grow with its feet in the water, a depth of 0 to 5cm is suitable. Once established, the plant can also cope with temporary drying out. Stachys palustris is also very hardy, tolerant to sea wind and air pollution and has little trouble with pests or diseases.
