Meadow Rue Lavender Mist

Meadow Rue Lavender Mist, Thalictrum rochebrunianum 'Lavender Mist', is tall and deer resistant. Thalictrum 'Lavender Mist' will produce an impressive backdrop for a natural looking, wildflower garden with its open airy habit. In mid to late summer, 'Lavender Mist' produces lavender purple flowers that grow on strong, self supporting dark purple stems over low mounds of green foliage. A beautiful addition to any landscape! 'Lavender Mist' likes humusy soil, moist and well draining, in dappled sunlight. It is highly intolerant of humid heat so probably not worth attempting in south since it is intolerant of intense heat and humidity. Deadhead to prolong blooming season. May require support during flowering. Best used in borders, meadows and naturalized areas. Most attractive when mass planted.
