Features

notes

The French meadow rue, Thalictrum aquilegiifolium Thundercloud is one of the tallest varieties of the species, bearing fan-like foliage reminiscent of aquilegia (hence the name) and in summer fluffy panicles of purple florets and stamens, which unfurl like little fireworks. This mist of flowers is delicate and soft, adding great texture and height to the border. 

Insights

Clump forming, this deciduous perennial looks wonderful planted en masse against a dark backdrop or works well in a container. Attractive to pollinators, it’s also an excellent naturalising plant.
