XL Mylar Packet - Tall Larkspur Seeds

Gold Vault Mylar Zip Packet

  This native cousin of the delphinium grows in the wild, often found thriving in open woodland areas. The genus name Delphinium comes from a Greek word meaning dolphin, referring to the unique shape of the blossoms; the species name "ajacis" comes from the Greek myth that these flowers first grew in the place where the great warrior Ajax committed suicide. The common name of larkspur comes from the supposed resemblance of the blossoms to the claw of a lark. Native Americans and early settlers used the bright flowers of this plant to make blue ink. Larkspur is the flower of the month of July, and symbolizes a carefree or fickle heart.

  Direct sow in late fall, planting just below the surface of rich soil. To plant in the spring, mix the seed with moist sand and store it in the refrigerator for 60 days before direct sowing. This seed can also be planted indoors on the surface of a flat, and kept evenly moist and at a temperature of 60-65 degrees F until germination. Transplant seedlings after the last chance of frost.
