Prairie Larkspur (Delphinium carolinianum), Ranunculaceae Family, Texas native, perennial, blooms early spring through mid-summer

Blue, blue-violet and white blooming prairie larkspurs are now classified together. Some are much deeper blue-violet.It may be considered by some to be a noxious weed or invasive. It has very high moisture needs and is suitable for bogs and water gardens.
It sellf-sows freely so you neeed to deadhead it if you do not want volunteer seedlings next season.


For photos of the other colors of blooms and more information, see its entry in the PlantFiles:
