Insights
Thalictrum or Meadow Rue originated in China. Highly attractive to bees, the flowers are long-lasting and are ideal for woodland or cottage gardens and look attractive planted in a container, but ensure they do not completely dry out. If you cannot resist cutting them for your house, they will also last well in a vase.
