Thalictrum dioicum (Early meadow rue) 6-pack
Early meadow rue Description:
Thalictrum dioicum, commonly known as Early Meadow Rue, is a herbaceous perennial plant that is native to North America. It can be found in moist woodlands, forests, and meadows from the eastern part of Canada to the eastern United States.
Early Meadow Rue typically grows 8 to 30 inches tall and has a clump-forming habit. It has finely divided, fern-like foliage that is bluish-green in color. In early spring, the plant produces tall, airy panicles of small, greenish-yellow flowers that are held well above the foliage.
Thalictrum dioicum is an excellent plant for naturalizing in a woodland garden or shaded border, and it is highly attractive to pollinators such as bees and butterflies. It prefers a moist, well-drained soil in partial to full shade and can be used in borders, wildflower meadows, or as a specimen plant. The plant is deer-resistant and can be easily grown from seed.
Native Range:
Early meadow rue can be found in the Midwest and East coast states. In Minnesota, Early meadow rue can be found nearly statewide with the exception of Southwestern Minnesota.
