Larkspur Benary’s Pacific Mix seedlings are a true gem that will bring stunning height and elegance to your garden. For successful cultivation, choose a fully sunny and airy location. The soil must be loamy, humous, and truly rich in nutrients. Larkspur certainly does not belong among drought-loving plants, so it requires regular and thorough watering. When planting the seedlings, maintain a spacing of sixty centimeters, which corresponds to about two to three plants per square meter. This spacing is absolutely crucial so that the leaves can dry quickly after rain and morning dew. This will prevent the spread of powdery mildew, an unpleasant fungal disease that manifests as a white coating on the leaves.
Care during the season is based primarily on a few important steps:
• Fertilizing: Apply fertilizer right in March at the beginning of the growing season so that the stems can support the heavy flowers.
• Support: For tall stems growing up to one hundred and fifty centimeters, we recommend placing a support in time so that the summer wind does not break them.
• Pest protection: Especially in the spring, you must carefully monitor the newly emerging shoots against slugs and snails, for which they are a huge attraction.
• Pruning back: After the main flush of blooms in June, cut the plants back lightly just above the ground, water heavily, and fertilize again. Thanks to this, you will see another beautiful wave of flowers in August and September.
Although the larkspur is radiantly beautiful, remember that it is entirely poisonous, so handle it with care. However, you don't need to worry about the winter. The plant has tremendous frost resistance and can easily survive temperatures dropping to minus thirty-four degrees. Botanically speaking, it is a short-lived perennial, so when its vitality drops, we recommend simply digging up, dividing, and replanting older clumps in autumn or spring. If you are considering growing it in a container or a large planter box, choose a really large and heavy pot so that the tall plant doesn't tip over. In a container, it will also require much more frequent moisture checks and a more regular supply of nutrients than in open ground.
