Delphinium… or more popularly known as Larkspur, in my favourite ‘hot’ blue colour, straight from the Summer-garden!
All parts of the plant contain an alkaloid delphinine and are very poisonous! All parts of the plant are poisonous… yet like so many plants… in small amounts, extracts of the plant have been used in herbal medicine.
Blue flowers, in my personal experience, are some of the (if not THE…) most difficult to light correctly, so that you keep the original tonality…
A true blue or purple is not so common in the flower world…
