Thalictrum


Thalictrum aquilegifolium planted in two beds in the back garden in May 2016. Last year it did well. This year it’s enormous, and was obscuring plants behind it in B2, so at the end of May I cut about half the stems to the ground. This seems to have worked, and it’s now (15th June) flowering nicely. It’s quite exposed to the wind, particularly in B2, but bamboo cane supports work well.


The plants are now about 8′ tall. The bamboo canes reach about 5′ above the ground.
