Plant Description: Upright, dioecious (male and female flowers on different plants) perennial. Thalictrum polycarpum is a beautiful plant with bluish-green ternately (divided into threes) compound leaves, reminiscent of it’s close relative Columbine. The leaves have a distinct pleasant smell when crushed. Male flowers are pendulant having many large tassel-like stamen dangling below green sepals. Female flowers are in dense, terminal, clusters in a panicle inflorescence, the most visible part being the pistils that are reddish to light purple, appearing brush like. Leaves turn yellow in autumn.
