Thalictrum 'Black Stockings' - 2026

Thalictrum 'Black Stockings' is an elegant, clump-forming perennial featuring finely divided, fern-like foliage and airy panicles of rich, dark purple flowers that bloom from early to mid-summer. The tall, graceful stems provide vertical structure and movement, adding drama and sophistication to borders, cottage gardens, and naturalistic plantings. Its nectar-rich flowers attract bees, butterflies, and other pollinators, providing both ornamental and ecological value.

Thriving in full sun to partial shade with moist, well-drained soil, Thalictrum 'Black Stockings' is hardy and low-maintenance. Cutting back after flowering encourages fresh growth and helps maintain a tidy, compact habit. Its combination of deep-coloured flowers, architectural form, and wildlife benefits makes it a versatile and rewarding choice for adding height, texture, and summer interest to a wide range of garden settings.
