Notes
'Flamenco' larkspur (Delphinium 'Flamenco') is a perennial for borders, cottage gardens, and cut flowers. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). This plant likes full or part sun and dry soil. Ruffled, fully double flowers open in deep raspberry pink from early to late summer. Cut off spent flower spikes and it may bloom again on side spikes in late summer and fall. Tall stems stand upright and hold themselves up.
Pairs well with Green Jewel coneflower, Appalachian sedge, and Sahara rudbeckia.
