Delphinium Consolida - Imperial Rocket Larkspur seed

Delphinium Consolida – Imperial Rocket Larkspur is a colorful mix that blooms in Pink, White, Purple and Blue and will grow to a taller height of 3 feet. The blooms will fill the stalk from the bottom to the top and it is a great annual that it will bloom its heart out then die back in the frost of Winter. Easy to grow and to care for. Plant them in groups for best and prettiest effect. I read on a site that the genus name Delphinium comes from a Greek word meaning dolphin, referring to the unique shape of the blossoms; the species name "ajacis" comes from the Greek myth that these flowers first grew in the place where the great warrior Ajax committed suicide. The common name of larkspur comes from the supposed resemblance of the blossoms to the claw of a lark. Native Americans and early settlers used the bright flowers of this plant to make blue ink. A little myth and history, I love the odd info you can find on plants.

I urge anyone buying seed to do their homework on germination, I have not raised and cannot raise many of these plants as I am sub-tropics here in St Augustine, Florida. All seed are NOT alike!  There are so many different factors in germination and not doing a search is throwing your money away. I want everyone to be successful when growing your flowers from seed it is the most rewarding experience in Gardening and you can do it, if you give the seed what it needs to grow. I always check 3 sites of info to choose how I will go about it. It is not hard to do, if you do it right!

SEED GERMINATION TIP!!!!!!!

ONLY GERMINATE A SMALL PORTION AT A TIME.

DON'T PUT ALL YOUR MONKEYS IN A BARREL.

Good Luck and Happy Planting!!!!
