This plant grows and blooms well in a pretty heavily shaded section of my garden. It appears to be slow to mulitpy. My soil is not particularly wet.

Trollius chinensis is growing in partial shade in the garden just south of mine. The flower is more orange than yellow but it's quite lovely and the flower form is elegant (see photo). The plant appears to be well-mannered. Bloomed mid-June here on the Massachusetts/Connecticut state line.

In part shade in zone 6a, 'Golden Queen' bloomed throughout June and then again in late August/early September. I kept expecting the plant to go dormant, but the foliage stayed nice all year. A very rich golden color.
