Thalictrum x 'Cotton Candy' (Meadow-Rue)

Thalictrum x ‘Cotton Candy’
(Proven Winners®, Meadow Rue)

An elegant, fine-textured perennial that forms a dense, upright pillar of delicate foliage topped with airy lavender blooms in late spring. More compact and balanced than typical T. aquilegifolium types, ‘Cotton Candy’ holds its flowers just above the foliage for a graceful, well-proportioned display. Ideal for adding height to small gardens or mixed borders, and excellent as a cut flower.

Light: Full sun to part shade
Height: 38–42"
Zone: 5–8
Features: Upright habit, airy lavender blooms, deer and rabbit resistant, attracts pollinators
