Commonly called Meadow Rue for the leaves that resemble the European rue. Thalictrum grows in dappled shade in damp locations. The generally erect stem has pinnate leaves with lobed leaflets. It produces clusters, sometimes large of tiny un-petaled flowers with contrasting stamens and pistils that often persist over a long period. Flowers range from white to light yellow and in shades of pinks and purples. It has a wide range through the northern hemisphere including several in the eastern US. There are also several very nice Asian species we have been propagating. The variety of forms of this species is broad. From graceful, 7 ft giants, to creeping ground covers that grow only 4” tall. Though it is often referenced as a shade plant, we have found that with cool, evenly moist soil it seems just fine with morning to early afternoon sun and seem to stay more upright. Likes a rich soil.
T. adiantifolium var. minus - A small form from 1’-2’ with greenish-yellow flowers in mid summer. The delicate ferny foliage persists all summer. Sold in 4” pots.
T. delavayi ‘Album’ - Similar to our native, but fuller. Grows 3’-5’. Flowers July and August. A white form of the Chinese meadow rue. Sold in deep 5” pot.
T. kiusianum - A tiny mat-forming species that spreads like a delicate ground cover. In early summer, tiny tufts of purple flowers float above the foliage. Flowers over a long period. Choice! Sold in 4” pots.
T. rochebruneanum - A tall, upright form to 6’. Flowers late summer with purple sepals and yellow stamens over a long period. Sometimes needs staking. Though tall and full, its wispy form never obscures. Sold in 5” pots.
T. dasycarpum - Native to North America, wide ranging. Purple stems, flowers mid-summer with white, purple tinged flowers. Sold in 5” pots.
All vernalized and well established.
