Tall Meadow-rue
Thalictrum pubescens
This elegant perennial produces large clusters of white flowers, attracting many pollinators, including bees and butterflies. Its blue-green leaves, divided into three rounded leaflets, add an attractive delicate visual texture to the garden. Being a dioecious plant, it produces male and female flowers on separate plants, so planting multiple individuals encourages seed production.
