Marsh Marigold leaves The dark green leaves are large and kidney-shaped with a glossy appearance, usually with two lobes at the base and the stems are long and hollow. The leaves are small when the flowers are in abundance but they will keep on growing into larger leaves, around 10 cm across, whenever the yellow flowers fade.

Still not as big as yours tho.
