Golden Queen-of-the-meadow

This graceful plant is useful to add stature to a garden. The crinkled leaves are compound, providing a more delicate texture. They are mottled, golden yellow in spring and fade to greenish-yellow in summer. Their white undersides add a secondary element of color. Clouds of creamy white blossoms are borne on thin, graceful stems in 6-inch-wide clusters. These tall flower spikes are followed by very attractive seedpods. Plant queen-of-the-meadow beside creeks and ponds, in natural meadows or at the back of the border. A tall, graceful plant for sunny gardens.
