Famous for its lacy bluish-green delicate fern like foliage, Thalictrum aquilegifolium offers an amazing display of long lasting pinky purple or white fluffy cotton flowers on branching stems from late spring onwards. The French Meadow Rue prefers moist humus rich soil in dappled shade. They are perfect for naturalising in a woodland or shrubby border. Due to its size and bushy habit, this plant makes an excellent gap filler wherever needed and will fit in just about anywhere, attracting bees, butterflies and birds making it perfect for the wildlife garden. Interesting cut flowers. Generally resistant to grazing deer and rabbits.
