Trollius yunnanensis
Chinese Globeflower |
USDA Zone: 4-9 |
Plant number: 1.530.040
Globeflowers are extremely popular perennials, bursting into colour in late spring and early summer. This species is said to have the largest flowers of any, with glistening yellow globes held on branching stems above a loose clump of deeply cut green leaves. Sometimes called Buttercups, these grow well in a sunny or part-shaded border, also at the edge of a moist woodland. Flowers will last a few days when cut. Shear plants back after blooming to encourage a flush of new leaves to last through the summer. Clumps may be easily divided in fall or early spring, every 4 to 5 years.
