 | Thalictrum flavum |
| Common name : Yellow Meadow-rue |
| |
| Yellow Meadow-rue has beautiful, lacy green foliage a little bit like a Columbine or Maidenhair Fern in effect. The large cloud-like sprays of tiny lemon-yellow flowers are outstanding for cutting. Despite the delicate appearance, it is fairly tolerant of warm, humid summers. Plants are tall and narrow in habit, so staking is usually required. Clumps may be divided in early spring, but take a year or two to settle back in and reach a mature size. Wonderful as a background plant.
