Meadow fanwort(Filipendula ulmaria) is a taller, wetter relative of the colonial fanwort, which is also native to our area. The Germanic and Celtic peoples used its flowers (and roots) to flavour their mead, and like elderberries, it can also be used to make syrups. It contains analgesic substances (e.g. salicylic acid) and was the source of the first aspirin. Its sweet, almond-like scent wafts through the meadows when it blooms.

Sow the seeds in spring or autumn in prepared soil or pots. You can also sow the seeds directly in their permanent location, but it is a good idea to grow them as seedlings to increase the germination rate. Cover the seeds very thinly with soil. Sprinkle them with water. Keep the soil moist during the first few weeks of germination. If sown in early spring, they will not flower until the following year, and if sown in autumn, they will usually flower the following year.

Admire the spectacle!
