Cut Flower Larkspur Misty Lavender Seedling Pack

Consolida ajacis

Cut Flower Larkspur seedlings, grown in Marlborough by Gray Floral, shipping NZ wide.

Misty Lavender (also known as 'Earl Grey') is the most beautiful dusky shade of lilac - it looks stunning in the border or in the vase. Larkspur is the more delicate sister to Delphiniums, and offers the same statuesque presence in the garden and makes a wonderful spike flower form in a bouquet. 

One of the toughest hardy annuals when it comes to climate - they'll handle anything from frost to snow and still come away blooming beautifully in spring. 

*Please exercise your own caution when planting around pets and children, plant, flowers & seeds are toxic if ingested*

 

Thank you to our friend and seed extraordinaire Katy at Barrhill Blooms for the use of her photo.

Harvest: When the 1/3 of the florets on the stem have opened

Vase life: 5-7 days, or dries beautifully

All our seedlings are grown in a custom cut flower mix which contains Trichoderma to assist in healthy root development and resistance to root pathogens. To give your seedlings the best start in your garden we recommend soaking them in a weak seaweed feed (or one of our "Seedling Shots") before planting. 

We are proud to be partnering with Sustaina Grow to package our seedlings in a wool wrap that maintains moisture and protects the seedlings in transit. On arrival, take your plants out of the box and give them a good drink of water - you can leave them wrapped in the wool to do this! When you're ready to plant or pot on you can unwrap the seedlings, but they will happily spend a couple of days in their wool blanket before planting.

This wool liner makes a wonderful mulch mat that can be used with your seedlings or around any plant in your garden. Everything apart from labels (which we hope you'll use in the garden and time and time again) and stickers are compostable, in an effort to keep our shipping sustainable for the environment.
