Thalictrum 'Elin'
Elin Meadow Rue
Loosely garbed in striking steely blue foliage, 'Elin's Meadow Rue features tall, purple-tinged stems and maintains a stately carriage. An impressive hybrid between Thalictrum flavum var. glaucum and Thalictrum rochebrunianum, its sturdy upright stalks culminate in open sprays of bicolored pale yellow and lavender flowers. Known to grow up to 12 ft. tall, this lofty Thalictrum paints soft smoky hues in the background and seldom needs staking. Blooms July–early August.
