    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    Thalictrum delavayi 'Album' is the beautiful white form of the elegant Chinese meadow rue. It is a tall, ethereal perennial with pendulous buds like white raindrops opening to reveal white wing-like petals above dangling yellowish stamens in summer. Meadow rue is a group of stately perennials that also have attractive columbine-like foliage and are perfect for the middle or back of the border. Plants appreciate even moisture. Pollinator attractor. Deer and rabbit resistant.

    This is a seedling selection of one of our all-time favorites with an abundance of white sparkling, airy flowers ornamented with showy stamens. It's tall and requires support, but is worth that small effort. Minimum temperature: -30 °F

    Distinctive for its gauzy white flowers with pale yellow stamens gracing sizable branched sprays, this classy clump-forming Thalictrum is grounded by finely divided fresh green Columbine-like foliage. 'Album's' delicate upright silhouette provides peerless texture-rich accents that effectively contrast bold-leafed plants such as Hydrangea serrata 'Kiyosumi' in the mixed border.
