Trollius farreri var. farreri



A delicious little tuft of slug sald on the day I bought it!

Plants of the World online says:

"The native range of this variety is E. & S. Qinghai to Central China. It is a perennial and grows primarily in the subalpine or subarctic biome.

Selina Wamucii says:

"Trollius farreri (also called 'Farrer's Globe Flower', among many other common names) is a perennial herbaceous plant native to China and the Himalayas. It grows in moist meadows and grasslands, and can reach up to 0.5 m in height. Its leaves are divided into three leaflets and its flowers are yellow in color."

The Flora of China says:

"Grassy slopes; 3500--4700 m. S Gansu, E and S Qinghai, S Shaanxi, W Sichuan, NE Xizang, NW Yunnan."

Very small growing, I was surprised how tough it was grown in a large pot under cover. I don't think it would have persisted in the open garden.
