Trollius 'Dancing Flame'
Height x Spread: 80cm x 50cm
Globe Flower, Trollius 'Dancing Flame' is a very vibrant orange, large-flowered form, much prized for its ability to repeat flower. It has multi-headed stems and flowers for at least eight weeks during late spring and early summer. It makes cracking big clumps and holds itself up well.
Ideal for planting in any situation where you have a moisture retentive soil and either a sunny or partially shaded aspect. A fantastic plant for bog gardens, edges of ponds or stream banks. It can cope in drier conditions providing you water during any dry spells. Hardy's launched Trollius 'Dancing Flame' at the RHS Chelsea Flower Show 2014 on behalf of Patrick Fairweather who developed this stunning plant from a seedling of Trollius yunnanensis at his family wholesale nursery in the New Forest.
