Growing Information

Sow Rocket Larkspur ‘Hyacinth Tall Mixed’ seeds directly outdoors in March to April, once the soil has started to warm and conditions are suitable.

Sow seeds at a depth of around 0.5–1 cm, covering lightly with soil. Avoid sowing too deeply, as this may slow or reduce germination.

Choose a sunny, sheltered position with fertile, well-drained soil. Rocket Larkspur prefers a permeable soil and can benefit from slightly alkaline conditions. If needed, a small amount of garden lime may be added before sowing.

Allow 15–20 cm between plants and around 30 cm between rows to give plants enough room to grow strong stems and flower well. Regular watering during dry weather and keeping the area weed-free will help support healthy growth.
