We are crazy about Trollius, which are like enormous fancy buttercups. Spherical to bowl-shaped orange and yellow double flowers bloom in late spring, around the time of late tulips, on stems above the foliage. Excellent for cutting. The snazzy petal-filled flowers seem miraculous blooming so early in the season. Palmately lobed, then further divided and toothed (buttercup-like) leaves form a mound. Ideal for a moist border, streamside, or naturalizing in a damp meadow.though ours are thriving in well-drained garden soil. This mix may contain the bright orange T. chinensis Golden Queen with her distinctive coronet of petal-like sepals; lemon-yellow rose-like T. europaeus Superbus; and the soft creamy yellow T. x cultorum New Moon.

Plant 8–12" apart in moist heavy soil, full sun to part shade. Z3. (bare-root crowns)
