Blooms & Form
Lavender Mist Larkspur produces tall upright spires of dense double blooms in a dreamy shade of pearly gray-lavender with a soft smoky quality that is nearly impossible to describe and completely impossible to forget. Plants reach 36 to 48 inches tall and make a stunning vertical element in bouquets. Beautiful fresh with a vase life of 7 to 10 days and equally gorgeous dried for wreaths and arrangements.
How to Grow
- When to Plant: Direct sow in early spring 3 to 4 weeks before last frost while soil is still cool. Larkspur needs cool soil temperatures to germinate — seeds do not germinate well when soil exceeds 55 degrees. Can also be sown in fall for early spring blooms.
- Where to Plant: Full sun, well-draining fertile soil. Larkspur thrives in cool conditions and may slow down in peak summer heat.
- Planting Tips: Sow seeds directly and cover with about 1/4 inch of soil — darkness is required for germination. Germination in 14 to 28 days. Do not transplant if possible as larkspur dislikes root disturbance.
- Spacing: Thin seedlings to 6 to 9 inches apart once plants reach 5 inches tall.
- Care Tips: Harvest when the first 2 to 3 flowers at the base of the stem are open for the longest vase life. Leave a few stems to self sow and you will be rewarded with volunteers the following season.
Warning: All parts of this plant including the seeds are toxic if ingested. Keep away from children and pets.
