Anemonella thalictroides ‘Shoaf’s Double’

dsc_009512642Anemonella thalictroides ‘Shoaf’s Double’  (Rue Anemone) are dainty native wildflowers for your woodland garden.  The double pink flowers bloom for several months beginning,  and then they may be summer dormant, especially in warmer climates.

Anemonella has enchanting three-lobed leaves that resemble Thalictrum (Meadow Rue), but only grow to about 6″ tall and spread to form colonies over time.

Anemonella prefer to grow in part shade in well drained soil for USDA zones 4 – 8.  Other varieties of Anemonella available here at Peacock Horticultural Nursery include a green flowered form, with other interesting varieties in cultivation for future sale.
