Taxonomy ID: 10349
Thalictrum pubescens, also known as the king of the meadow or tall meadow-rue, is a rhizomatous, clump-forming perennial plant in the buttercup family, Ranunculaceae. It typically grows to a height of 3-7 feet and can be found in a variety of habitats such as rich woods, low thickets, marshes, swamps, wet meadows, and stream/river banks throughout Canada and the United States. While it prefers direct light and well-draining soil, it is an easy-to-grow houseplant that requires regular watering to thrive. Repotting every time it doubles in size can provide enough nutrients without added fertilizers.
