The easiest Trollius from seed so consequently the one most often seen for sale, usually under the name Golden Queen. This is the tallest (up to 4’) and latest of the globeflowers to bloom (June-July).  Large 3-4” wide flowers are actually not globe-shaped at all; its showy golden orange sepals open flat unveiling the center circle of long, thin eyelash-like orange petals. I’m now of the opinion that this species needs frequent dividing for continued success (every 2-3 years), otherwise it seems to dwindle away. Divisions quickly bulk back up into stout plants. Beautiful with Siberian and Japanese Iris.
