Description en: Genus of about 40 species of erect, slender-stemmed annuals, closely related to and sometimes included in the genus Delphinium. They occur in fallow fields and on stony slopes and steppes in S.E. Europe and from the W. Mediterranean region to C. Asia. The feathery, softly downy, mid- to dark green, usually rounded leaves are deeply pinnatisect, or palmate with numerous slender leaflets. Spurred, delphinium-like, pink, blue, or white flowers are produced in racemes or panicles in summer. The taller cultivars provide long-lasting cut flowers, which may also be dried. All are excellent for a cottage garden or annual border. Larkspur seeds are poisonous.
