Trollius (Globeflower) chinensis ‘Golden Queen’

‘Golden Queen’ is truly the queen of the buttercup family, having strongly erect stems requiring no staking, rising up to 32″ from out of the three-lobed serrated basal foliage, each stem topped by the largest brightest, 3-4″ deep golden-orange blossoms which are magnets for butterflies & bees. Central petals are forming a spiky crown. Moisture-loving, spring or early summer flowering. Fresh looking.

It justly received the Award of Garden Merit from the Royal Horticultural Society. As with all globeflowers, it requires very moist conditions & is appropriate to the bog garden. It thrives in poorly drained clay soils, but will easily adapt to well-drained soil too. Bred from wildflowers that preferred marshy meadows, it will not tolerate outright dryness. It is clump-forming, long-lived and one of the earliest to bloom in the spring. A sterling addition to bouquets and flower arrangements.

Planting/Care Instructions +

Planting Instructions: Dig a hole large enough to encompass the roots without bending or circling. Set the plant in place so the crown (part of the plant where the root meets the stem) is about 1-2 inches below the soil surface. Cover with soil to the original soil surface and water thoroughly. Can also be grown in moist spots in the garden, like pond (water) sides and bog gardens.

Pests or Diseases: No serious insect or disease problems.
