{"product_id":"purple-meadow-rue-thalictrum-dasycarpum","title":"Purple Meadow Rue (Thalictrum dasycarpum)","description":"\u003cp\u003ePurple Meadow Rue is a stately and architectural perennial that adds a sense of height and airy elegance to the summer garden. This impressive plant can reach heights of six feet or more, supported by sturdy, often purplish stems that branch gracefully at the top. Its delicate, blue-green foliage resembles that of a columbine or a maidenhair fern, providing a soft, textured backdrop for other plants. In June and July, it produces large, cloud-like clusters of creamy white flowers that lack petals but feature prominent, drooping stamens, giving them a unique, fringed appearance. Native to wet prairies, meadows, and woodland edges across much of North America, Purple Meadow Rue is a dioecious species, meaning individual plants are either male or female. It is a vital resource for native bees, which visit the male flowers for pollen, and it serves as a larval host for several species of moths. It thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers rich, moist, well-drained soils. For best results, sow seeds in the fall to allow for natural cold stratification, or provide a 60-day cold-moist treatment before spring planting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eQuick facts\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6 ft or more\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSun:\u003c\/strong\u003e Full to Partial\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSoil moisture:\u003c\/strong\u003e Medium-Wet to Medium\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBloom time:\u003c\/strong\u003e Jun–Jul (Cream)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLife cycle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Perennial\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNative range:\u003c\/strong\u003e Native to 30 states, including Iowa, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Illinois, Missouri, Nebraska\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/database.hokseynativeseeds.com\/species\/thalictrum-dasycarpum\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eSee the full growing guide and county range map for Purple Meadow Rue\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hoksey Native Seeds","offers":[{"title":"1 oz","offer_id":50926605107397,"sku":null,"price":48.33,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1\/4 lb","offer_id":50926605140165,"sku":null,"price":193.32,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0752\/6567\/1365\/files\/THADAS-4.jpg?v=1793737117","url":"https:\/\/hokseynativeseeds.com\/products\/purple-meadow-rue-thalictrum-dasycarpum","provider":"Hoksey Native Seeds","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
