Looks to me like a Delphinium???

weez,

You could be correct......i planted some, and don't know where they went.. ;o)

Do they have s soft fern like leaf? This does, Now pink is blooming.

Another possibility is the annual Larkspur, a member of the Delphinium family. I have some this year that are that beautiful, deep blue (purple) color and they have the upper, fern like foliage.

Check out the new photo with the foilage..Now for some new doubt.

This plant is a perennial .......Came back from 2005.....
Larkspur is a annual???????????

Now what/

dodge

How tall are the individual plants in question?

Larkspur is about 2 ft something..
Delphiniums can be about 4ft or higher

(Just a ball park figure)

And those colors are so pretty, I love'em..

How did you plant them, by seed?
Were they a mix of flowers???

Weezie,

I would say 4 ft........I thought they was an Herb that I planted from seed.....
Yes definately was seed, which appeared this spring .......
It is intresting for sure.....Good thing I didnt nibble any..ha ha ....

Could it be something else? The soft leaves throw me off......Did you check the 2nd Photo/

Thanks for your intrest..

some larkspur are annual, but most are perennial...

Dodge, check out the info for the annual Larkspur, Consolida Orientalis, at this link...

Mine get 3' - 5' tall and need support occasionally. Our hot weather really does a number on them but they are gorgeous. Prolific reseeders so there are always news ones each year. I love Delphinium but they can't take our temps in Okieland.

I still have doubts of what it is ..Any one else have any ideas?

dodge

it is a larkspur or delphinium variety. your flower has the spur (spike at rear of flower) & the lark (part in front that looks like a roosting bird).

use your imagination like with clouds.

I just went outside in the dark and picked one,'

The rear spike is correct.........I never saw that before.....
You mean a bird on one foot?/ha ha
I will look in daylite..ha ha
;o)


Wonder how big is that family?

I have delp. seeds maybe it was that .

Thanks this is funny.

My Larkspur are self-seeding. They're back every year. I always shake them well when I'm preparing the bed for winter. I think they look like Larkspur, also. Sue

This is my first try.. Seeded last fall.

thanks so much.
