Thalictrum aquilegiifolium Album (Meadow Rue)

A superb border plant, Thalictrum aquilegiifolium 'Album' (Meadow Rue) is favored for its lacy, refined, bluish-green foliage resembling Columbine and its dense panicles of pure white fluffy flowers rising elegantly above the foliage. On display in late spring to early summer, they give way to ornamental clusters of pendulous, wing-like seeds, therefore providing an extended season of interest. Low maintenance, disease and trouble free, this bushy plant adds marvelous accents in the landscape.
