Spice of Life Garden

Rue is an attractive plant that a is perfect to accent or border your garden.  You should be warned that rue can be an irritant to the skin and should not be taken internally. Rue does not always like to play nice with others as it makes it difficult to grow other plants close by. You should space this perennial 1 to 2 feet apart from each other and maybe as much as 10 feet from other plants. Best grown in zones 4 to 9 , this lush blue-green plant will bring a harvest of yellow and yellowish-green flowers in midsummer.
