Thalictrum 'Hewitt's Double'
- Add a touch of pure fairy-tale magic to your garden with hazy, lilac-pink, fully double flowers that look just like tiny pom-poms.
- This thalictrum produces delicate, maidenhair-fern-like foliage that creates a stunning, fine-textured backdrop for other perennials.
- Despite its delicate appearance, Thalictrum is fully hardy and creates a towering, architectural presence at the back of a sunny or partially shaded border.
- The airy stems allow you to see right through the plant, meaning you can plant it near the front of a border without blocking the view!
- It is an absolute showstopper from mid to late summer, bringing invaluable height, movement, and unmatched elegance to any planting scheme.
