Consolida Ajacis - Misty Lavender

Beautiful silvery lavender colored annual delphinium (Consolida Ajacis).

Very beautiful en masse in a vase and also dries well as a dried flower!

In the border I would rather put them in the middle - back, because they grow fairly high.

You can sow this hardy annuals in autumn or early spring. They prefer a cooler growing period, so you get bigger, taller plants.

Also give these plants some support, so that they do not fall over in wind or heavy rain.
Harvest them when 1/3 of the flowers are open and then you can expect a good week of vase life.
