Description
Annual – blooms quickly in the first growing season but must be replanted the following year. 48" tall. Rocket Larkspur Pink Queen is a must-have variety for summer cutting gardens as the stately, spiky blooms add height and interest to arrangements. This easy-to-grow Delphinium is quick to grow in any sunny or partially-sunny spot in the garden with well-draining soil. If you don’t have a spot with well-draining soil, consider growing this beauty in a raised bed. To help promote multiple flowers on one plant, after the first bloom is spent cut the plant almost back to the ground. Plant in the fall for earlier summer blooms or sprinkle seed on bare soil in the spring once there is no more chance of frost. Flowers may require staking.
