Aconitum carmichaelii 'Arendsii'


Aconitum carmichaelii 'Arendsii' (Aconitum carmichaelii (Monkshood))

These grow happily in the shade at the back of the wide border. They do need support, as they would otherwise flop over.

Ah - I see. Would you like a piece in the spring?

20 Oct, 2010

 

That would be kind!
Must be a swap though - maybe a piece of my Tricyrtis Taiwan Adbane. Take a look through my garden and let me know. I'll set a reminder.

Yes - except I have to climb into the wide border to see them...I really must move some next spring. LOL.

I love aconites. I have one called ice blue in flower at the moent. It flopped coz I forgot to stake it.

Mine do if I forget - I use peasticks, and one must have collapsed, as I have some flopping stems. :-((
