Description

A relatively compact alpine species with deeply cut, blue-green foliage and orange-yellow, and occasionally blue flowers, from July to September. Its native range is widespread, but mainly in the European mountains, such as the Alps and the Carpathians, and the northern parts of Asia but like many aconitum species, it has great variability, due to isolation and hybridisation.

Sowing Advice

For best results, sow seeds as soon as you receive them onto a good soil-based compost. Cover the seeds with fine grit or compost to approximately their own depth. These seeds can be very slow indeed to germinate, and may wait for spring before emerging whenever sown. Do not use artificial heat to try to germinate them as it will simply disrupt their germination mechanism. Please be very patient, and do not discard the seed pan.
