Thalictrum 'Cotton Ball' (Meadow-Rue)

Thalictrum ‘Cotton Ball’ – Meadow-Rue

Add light, airy texture and vertical interest to the garden with ‘Cotton Ball’. This elegant Meadow-Rue forms a narrow, upright column of finely textured green foliage topped with sprays of clear white flowers on contrasting dark stems.

Blooming in early to midsummer, its slender habit makes it especially useful for adding height without taking up much space. The delicate flowers blend beautifully into mixed perennial borders and can also be enjoyed in fresh-cut arrangements. Deer and rabbits typically leave it alone.
