Planting and Care Guide

Planting Tips

Plant in moist, well-drained, humus-rich soil. Space 12–18 inches apart. Water thoroughly after planting and mulch to retain moisture.

Care Tips

Water consistently throughout the season- meadow-rue prefers steady moisture and will decline in dry soil. The tall, airy stems with delicate, columbine-like foliage and small, misty flowers are elegant and refined. Stake in windy locations if needed. Cut back to the ground in late fall or early spring. Divide every 3–4 years in spring. Largely pest-free. An excellent native perennial for the shade or part-shade border where its fine texture and airy habit are beautifully effective.
