Actea racemosa. I liked the name better when it was known as Cimicifuga racemosa. This native of the woodlands of the eastern U.S. is also known as black cohosh, bugbane, black snakeroot or fairy candle and has a long history as a medicinal plant.

The Actea racemosa is stunning...and just what I need...still educating myself on deer resistant plantings and this looks a winner for my zone as well. Thanks!
Hi MFG.
It is one of my favorites. It grows to about 4-5 ft tall but it's so wiry that it doesn't block anything. All the leaves are at the base
These are stunning images...
especially liked the Actea racemosa.
Also was pleased to be introduced to this fascinating painter Burchfield.
Great inspiration thank you!
