| I grow 'Splendide' and 'Hewitt's Double' in my garden and love them both. I am looking into growing other types as well. Does anyone grow or is anyone able to comment on the following?: Black Stockings I am interested in knowing how long each of these bloom, overall garden effect and attractiveness to pollinators. |

| 'ispahan', I have none of the ones you have listed but I can give two thumbs up to the most petite thalictrum I possess...."Evening Star". I have several and even though they are all in significant shade they are in flower most of the season; at the same time having wonderful foliage.. I also have "Sparkler" and in this its first full season in my garden it grew to about 4 feet in height with white flowers...nothing outstanding...maybe it will be better in subsequent years. |

| Second thumbs up for 'Evening Star' - can't rate it highly enough! Other than that one, 'Hewitt's Double' and an early yellow (T. flavum ssp glaucum?) I have sold but not personally grown several of the newer intros. 'Elin' looks especially interesting......if I had more room :-) |

| What is frustrating re "Evening Star" is that I find it impossible to capture its loveliness on film. I have been mulling over planting a border of ES for a small shade garden. |

UPDATE: "Sparkler" is so healthy and vigorous. It is over 4 feet tall, (so far self supporting) and quite lush and floriferous. Here it is as of today:
