I first discovered this gorgeous flower in Iceland, where it covered the green hillsides in golden drifts, and I have never forgotten it. Trollius europaeus, the Globeflower, belongs to the Ranunculaceae family, the same family as the humble buttercup, and you can see the resemblance right away. Think of it as the buttercup’s grown-up cousin: the same glossy, butter-yellow petals, but curled inward into a plump, glowing sphere, like a buttercup that decided to become a little sun.
Each bloom is a perfect round globe of lemon yellow that looks lit from within. It is cheerful, sunny, and impossible to ignore, and a field of them will make you smile. They flower from late spring into early summer above deep green, finely cut foliage that looks tidy even when nothing is in bloom, and they make wonderful cut flowers. Pollinators love them.
Globeflower is a true perennial that returns year after year and slowly forms a thicker clump. It reaches 18 to 30 inches tall and about 18 inches wide, and it grows in zones 3 to 7. It thrives in rich, evenly moist soil in sun to part shade, which makes it ideal for pond edges, rain gardens, bog gardens, and damp spots where other plants struggle.
These seeds are extremely difficult to source in the US, which is why we are so happy to offer them.
Growing tips: Seeds need a cold, moist period to germinate. Sow them in fall and leave them outdoors for winter, or cold stratify them in the fridge first. To do this, dampen a paper towel until it is moist but not dripping, then spread the seeds on one half and fold the towel over them. Slide it into a zip-top bag, label it, and place it in the refrigerator for 4 to 6 weeks. Check it every week or so and re-moisten the towel if it dries out. If you see any white sprouts, plant those seeds right away. When the time is up, press the seeds, along with any that haven’t sprouted, onto the surface of moist soil and barely cover them. Keep the soil moist, and be patient, since germination can be slow and uneven.
