Just look at this Larkspur — doesn’t it seem to have an iridescent shine to you? And it’s so BLUE! It’s tough to find real blues in flowers. I admit this looks just a little more purple in real life, but this photo was not “photoshopped” or adjusted in any way (besides resizing). It does have an intense blue color in the garden. These are offspring several generations after having the ‘Rocket’ variety of Larkspur in a wildflower mix in my backyard. I can’t be certain that they’re still ‘Rocket’ since some plants along the way could have been cross-pollinated by another variety from somewhere nearby.
