Plant description
This stunning perennial can add height without density in the herbaceous border or edge of woodland. It has very delicate attractive aquilegia-like foliage, but is at its best in summer, when the open sprays of mauve cup like flowers burst upon the scene. A coolly elegant plant that mixes well with ferns and softens other planting.

How to care for Thalictrum Splendide:
May need supporting with brushwood or garden canes. Divide congested plants as new growth begins in spring, although divisions may be slow to re-establish. Cut back flower stems to the ground in spring before the new growth starts to emerge.
Please note:
This perennial dies back to below ground level each year in autumn, then fresh new growth appears again in spring.
