Delphinium Consolida Ajacis - Chrisje's Mix - (larkspur)

Delphinium Consolida Ajacis - Chrisje's Mix - (larkspur)

Having trouble choosing just one color in these annual larkspurs? Then this mix is a fun alternative: light blue, purple, pink – let yourself be surprised by this mix of colors. 

Consolida Ajacis or annual larkspur is very beautiful en masse in a vase and also dries well. Perfect as a dried flower! 
In the border, I would place them more towards the middle or back, as they grow quite tall. 

This hardy annual can be sown in autumn or early spring (February).
They prefer a cold growing period to produce bigger, taller plants. Best germination occurs at cold temperatures. They do not germinate easily above 13°C. So it’s best to start them in a cold, unheated greenhouse. Definitely not on a warm windowsill. Germination takes 2 to 3 weeks. If you don’t have a greenhouse, you can also place the seeds in the fridge (2°C) for 7 days to encourage germination. 

Give these plants some support, for example with this support net, so they won’t fall over in wind or heavy rain. 
Harvest when 1/3 of the flowers are open, then you can expect about a week of vase life.
