Planting and care

  • Larkspur generally grows best in cooler weather
  • When the temperature rises to 80 degrees and higher, they will most likely die
  • But in general, it will grow fast with little maintenance until the first frost hits
  • As with most annual plants, frost will wipe them out
  • Also strong winds will damage them, so make sure they are well-shielded
  • If your larkspur grows too tall, it may have to be staked up as the blossoms get too heavy
  • But if they are planted about six 6 apart, they will support one another and won, t require staking
  • Larkspur usually blooms very early in the spring, before any other plants
  • If you need to add fertilizer to your soil, do so about once a month, but not after the larkspur have bloomed

  • However, the seedlings are susceptible to rot and must be planted in quickly draining, mildly alkaline soil to survive into maturity
