Thalictrum flavum
Thalictrum flavum, commonly known as common meadow-rue, is a species of flowering plant in the Ranunculaceae family. It is native to Europe and parts of Asia, where it typically grows in damp meadows, marshes, and along riverbanks.
Description[edit | edit source]
Thalictrum flavum is a perennial herbaceous plant that can grow up to 1.5 meters tall. The plant has erect, hollow stems and pinnate leaves with a bluish-green hue. The leaves are divided into numerous small leaflets, giving them a delicate, fern-like appearance. The flowers are small, yellow, and arranged in dense, fluffy clusters at the top of the stems. The blooming period is typically from June to August.
Habitat and Distribution[edit | edit source]
Thalictrum flavum is found across Europe and extends into parts of Asia. It prefers wet, marshy environments and is commonly found in meadows, along riverbanks, and in other damp areas. The plant thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers rich, moist soil.
Cultivation[edit | edit source]
Thalictrum flavum is cultivated for its ornamental value in gardens and natural landscaping. It is relatively easy to grow, provided it is planted in a location that mimics its natural habitat. The plant can be propagated by seed or by division in the spring or autumn.
Uses[edit | edit source]
While Thalictrum flavum is primarily grown for its aesthetic appeal, it has also been used in traditional medicine. The plant contains various alkaloids and has been used to treat a range of ailments, although its use is not widespread in modern herbal medicine.
