**This flowering plant sends out tall flower spikes covered in indigo flowers above its mound of vibrant green foliage. Hardy throughout most of the UK down to -15°C.** A relative of the buttercup, the Candle Larkspur grows wild in river valleys, woodland edges and clearings, but have also been cultivated since the 16th Century. This flowering shrub grows a mound of vibrant green foliage which then produces tall spikes (up to 2m tall!) of indigo flowers. Their height means they'll still shine at the back of a display, but make sure to keep them sheltered from the wind so they don't get blown over. Choose this gorgeous flower for the perfect border or centrepiece to your outdoor display. | Perennial | Flower: tall stems/ spikes | Flowers June to September | | --------- | -------------------------- | ------------------------- | **Scientific Name** Delphinium elatum (tall/proud dolphin-like plant) 'Guardian Blue' **Common Name** Larkspur, Candle Larkspur, Alpine Delphinium **Origin** Nati
