watering

The Rue Anemone is a fairly drought-tolerant plant species, so it doesn't require frequent watering. During the hot summer months, the Rue Anemone should be watered every 2 weeks with enough water to thoroughly moisten its soil. During the cooler months, you can wait a bit longer between watering, as the plant needs less water when temperatures are lower. Aim to water about every 3 to 4 weeks.

sunlight

Rue anemones (Thalictrum thalictroides) prefer partial sun and should get at least 4 hours of sunlight a day. During the spring and summer, afternoon shade is recommended to help avoid leaf scorch. During the winter months it is advised to avoid direct sunlight as the plant goes into dormancy.

pruning

Rue anemone (Thalictrum thalictroides) does not require pruning. It will naturally produce lovely, airy flowers, and if the foliage begins to look a bit frazzled, it can be cut back to within a few inches of the soil level in late winter or early spring. This will help revitalize the plant and ensure robust growth for the season.
