Larkspur Giant Imperial Mix

The classic larkspur for the cutting garden. Giant Imperial Mix produces tall, sturdy stems packed with fully double ruffled flowers in a romantic palette of violet, rose, and white — a superior strain that branches from the base, giving you multiple cutting stems from a single plant rather than just one central spike.

Reaching 90–120cm with a long vase life and drying beautifully, it is the backbone of any serious cutting patch and a natural companion to sweet peas and nigella in a cottage garden border.

• Consolida ajacis — Hardy Annual (H3)
• Height: 90–120cm | Flowers: June–August
• Direct sow autumn or early spring — do not transplant
• Full sun; well-drained soil
• Branches from base — multiple cutting stems per plant
• Excellent for cutting fresh, drying, and wedding confetti

Sow in autumn for the tallest, most floriferous plants — and cut generously to keep the stems coming.
