Trollius × cultorum ‘Orange Princess’
Globeflower |
USDA Zone: 2-9 |
Plant number: 1.530.150
Globeflowers are extremely popular perennials, bursting into colour in late spring and early summer. This selection has large double flowers in a glowing golden-orange shade. 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.
