The listing, LARKSPUR DELPHINIUM, 30 SEEDS, BEAUTIFUL ! has ended.
Larkspur plants grow as summer annuals, producing 3- to 4-foot spires of blue to purple blooms. They require cool temperatures to germinate, but they cannot survive frost. Plants started from seed take approximately four months before they begin to flower, so larkspur plants grow as summer annuals. They require cool temperatures to germinate, but they cannot survive frost. Start seeds indoors now for spring planting and summer blooms . They can also be started in ground after all danger of frost has past. This works best for me as it is a type of wildflower. It is a reseeding annual.
Plant the seeds 1/8 inch deep, sowing two to three seeds per pot, container or nurery flat.
Set the pots outdoors or in a 60 to 65 degree Fahrenheit room. Avoid locations where the soil freezes .
Move pots to a full-sun location once the seeds germinate, typically within 20 days of sowing.
Thin the plants once they produce their second set of leaves. Pinch out the smaller and weaker plants in each pot so only one larkspur plant remains in the pot. Water the larkspur plants when the soil surface begins to dry. Fertilize the plants every two weeks.
Transplant the larkspur flowers outdoors in a well-drained, full sun bed in spring once frost danger has passed. Space the plants 12 to 16 inches apart.
Plant seeds inground after all danger of frost has passed. Space 8-12" apart .Cover with around 1/8" of soil and water but not so much to move the seeds . Mist daily until they sprout and then when they begin to dry.
Larkspur tolerates some drought but flowers best with regular watering.
