Globe Flower, Globeflower
Luminous in the late spring or early summer garden, Trollius europaeus (Globe Flower) is a charming upright perennial with large, bowl-shaped, lemon-yellow flowers resembling double buttercups. Borne on erect stalks, the attractive blooms are held high above a pillow of deeply divided, dark green leaves. This perennial thrives in damp environments where it creates a wonderful splash of color during its blooming season. Spectacular in mass plantings!
