How to Care for the Plant

Water
Water regularly particularly during periods of drought.
Pruning
Thalictrum can be cut back after flowering or delayed until the late winter/early spring as the foliage and seed heads remain attractive. Thalictrum can self seed but not so much as to be invasive and is trouble free. If you need to divide a clump, this is best done early spring or early autumn.
Sunlight
Partial shade.
