Description
“I have always favored pink larkspur when I see them in mixes. I selected this one from a mix for it’s 48-60” height and darker shades of pink that reach into rose. Larkspur is at it’s best and biggest when direct seeded in autumn, and least likely to topple in the wind when grown in firm soil, whether direct seeded or transplanted. Seeding into 50-55 degree soil is optimal for germination, and seedlings are winter hardy in nearly all planting zones. Close spacing (down to 1” apart) makes for tall unbranched stems that stand firmly against the wind.”
