The large-flowered Larkspur, Delphinium grandiflorum, is depicted in full bloom with its vibrant blue and white petals unfurling around a distinctive spur. The Painted-leaved Larkspur, Delphinium pictum, steals the spotlight with its intricately patterned leaves, adding a touch of elegance to the composition. The Dark-flowered Larkspur, Delphinium triste, adds a dramatic flair with its rich, deep hue, while the Twiggy Larkspur, Delphinium vimineum, displays its delicate, wispy blooms. Also featured are the Large-flowered Larkspur, Delphinium grandiflorum, with its elegant, tall spikes, and the Dark-flowered Larkspur, Delphinium triste, with its rich, velvety petals.
