I’d like to formally introduce everypony to my cousin Marigold! You’ve seen her before. She’s one of my best friends in Ponyville, and taught me a lot about managing my finances. Look forward to seeing more of her and my other friends in the future! She joins Melony and Pun for introduced characters. Two more to go!
 
Marigold, or “Ms. Gold” as she prefers to be called professionally, turned her talent with flowers into a thriving business. She runs “Golden Gardens” with the slogan “Great taste in gardening” and employs many of the ponies with horticulture-related talents around Ponyville. She’s easily one of the wealthiest ponies in town, but rarely takes the time to enjoy her wealth and instead focuses her resources back into growing her business and influencing regional politics. She is Pun’s first cousin, from her mother’s sister. Though Marigold has many suitors, nearly all are only after her wealth. she’s determined not to get romantically involved with anypony who can’t keep up with her business sense.
