Description
Thalictrum Chantilly Lace is a variety of Meadow-rue which is compact with many summer flowers in a beautiful mauve-pink to purple-pink shade. This lovely shade-loving perennial develops crowned floral stems with large inflorescences composed of small flowers in cups, open on pale lime-green stamens. The medium green finely cut foliage, which strongly resembles that of columbines, is attractive and contributes to the delicacy and grace of the plant. An ideal plant to lighten up semi-shaded borders, in humus-rich and moist soil.
Thalictrum Chantilly Lace is a horticultural creation from 2020 by the English nursery 'Hardy's Cottage Garden Plants'. Its wild ancestor, the columbine-leaved meadow-rue, is native to damp and shaded mountain meadows in Europe and Asia. It belongs to the buttercup family, just like anemones, clematis, and... columbines. This tall herbaceous perennial with a rhizomatous base can sometimes take time to establish, but its beauty is worth the wait. The Chantilly Lace variety stands out for its lower habit and its beautiful purple-pink flowers. When mature, the plant reaches about 35 cm (14in) in all directions. Its medium green leaves with undulate edges are divided into obovate leaflets on either side of the central vein. The foliage is very similar to garden columbines. Appearing in June-July, the flowers are arranged in large paniculate clusters forming clouds of single cup-shaped flowers. They are composed of violet petals with long radiating stamens. The stems that bear them are strong enough to not be staked. The above-ground vegetation, deciduous, dries up in autumn and regrows in spring.
It is in the border or middle of the flower bed that this beautiful Chantilly Lace meadow-rue finds its place. Its flowering stems are perfect for making summer bouquets, with roses or peonies for example. It thrives in lightly sunny or semi-shaded areas of the garden. A damp and deep soil allows it to grow vigorously, but it also tolerates summer heat, as long as it is watered from time to time at the end of the day. It pairs very well with lilies, as well as with ferns, hostas, bellflowers, meadowsweets, rodgersias, and perennial geraniums.

Planting and care
Thalictrum Chantilly Lace can be planted in spring or autumn, in partial shade, in soil rich in humus or compost, deep and moist, but well-drained. Water during dry weather and spread mulch on the soil to maintain moisture in summer. Do not prune the young plants to the ground after flowering, as new shoots will only emerge in late spring. Remove faded flowers to prevent excessive self-seeding. Perfectly hardy, Thalictrum can withstand temperatures as low as -21°C (-5.8°F). Generally very robust, it may be susceptible to powdery mildew in hot and dry weather. Gastropods sometimes cause some damage in spring.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).

In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a (East Coast and Midlands: Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny, Portlaoise). It will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the north-west (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal, Westport), delay planting by 1 to 2 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 1 to 2 weeks in autumn compared to the dates given, preferably choosing periods without strong winds.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (Wicklow Mountains, Macgillycuddy’s Reeks, Connemara, Killarney), it is best to plant in spring (April–May) or autumn (September–October), avoiding periods of waterlogged soil in winter and strong winds, which pose the main risk to newly planted trees in these areas.
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a, such as the East Coast and Midlands, including Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny and Portlaoise.
This will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the northwest (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal and Westport), it will be delayed by one to two weeks compared to the given dates, due to stronger Atlantic winds and less spring sunshine.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (the Wicklow Mountains, the Macgillycuddy's Reeks, Connemara and Killarney), flowering will be delayed by two to three weeks. Flowering mainly occurs between May and July, with the limiting factors being less frost and more of the excessive humidity, strong winds and lack of sunshine that are characteristic of these areas.
