Larkspur, a member of the Delphinium family, is a tall, graceful flower known for its spiky blooms and vivid colors, including shades of blue, purple, pink, and white. Its elegant, towering presence adds vertical interest and a sense of whimsy to gardens and floral arrangements.

In the garden, larkspur thrives in cool climates and prefers full sun to partial shade and well-drained soil. It is often grown as an annual in zones like 5, where it reseeds easily and can create stunning displays year after year. Larkspur blooms in late spring to early summer and attracts pollinators like bees and butterflies, making it a valuable addition to a garden's ecosystem.
