This is an attractive plant which  has tall spikes of pink shading into rose flowers. Of course , like all larkspurs, it makes a magnificent cut flower and performs well in the garden as well, with its delphinium-like spires.

Sowing advice

Note : All plant parts are poisonous in large doses, especially the seeds

Sow  in  spring. These seeds are best sown directly, as seedlings do not transplant well but can be grown in cell pots or trays with care when transplanting. Rake soil to a fine tilth.  Don’t cover seeds. Keep soil moist.  Ideal temperature is 10 deg C.  14-21 days for germination. If germination does not occur try cold stratification for 2 weeks. Move to -4-+4°C for 2-4 weeks then return to warmth. .
