Meadow Rue rises above the rest—literally—with its delicate foliage, clouds of airy flowers, and strong ecological value. It’s understated elegance meets rugged resilience. In late spring to early summer, this plant sends up tall, branching stems topped with loose sprays of creamy-white to pale green flowers. These tufted, tassel-like blooms may be small individually, but together they create a soft, floating veil that dances with the breeze. The effect is both ethereal and wild, making it a perfect addition to naturalistic designs or moist native meadows.
