| Some of the Thalictrums are quite showy e.g. "Splendide". But "Evening Star" is a much smaller, understated variety. I have had it my my garden for 3 years now and it is just this season that it has started to come into its own. |

| Yours looks a whole lot better than mine at this point. I ended up moving mine from the front to the back after dismantling part of my front shade garden last year. It is a lot smaller now unfortunately. On an interesting side note...it had heaved a bit and I buried it deeper a few weeks ago. I noticed the most unusual thing, this Thalictrum seems to have very tuber-like roots to it. There were tons of little tubers coming from the plant. I took two of them and am doing a bit of an experiment (dusted with rooting hormone and plopped under my grow light) to see if they root out. Who knows, maybe I will have a little constellation of Evening Stars around here if it works, LOL. ;-) |

| Although one can't see them in the picture very well, there really are some small pink flowers hear the top of the plant. |
