Good Qualities
Year 1
The flower size was good (despite the fact that they struggled) and they have a nice fragrance; Excellent fall color – stiff stems; Nice tall, dark blue flowers, pest free.
Year 2
Excellent fall color, stiff stems, long vase life, can take multiple frost and still be cuttable.
Problems
Year 1
This was rotten on arrival – apparently is a poor shipper; I’m not sure that these will grow well enough here to be used as a cut flower (zone 7a); Blooms very late (zone 6); Corms do not store well – must be shipped soon after digging; None of the roots came up; They were planted in perfect conditions immediately, upon arrival; Blooms over very short period, 3-4 weeks, July-August; Completely dormant in winter time so it can get lost.
Year 2
Never flowered, died in our climate (Zone 8a); Bulbs rotten when arrived 2001, too bad; Too much west coast production – market flooded.

Comments
Year 1
We had a cooler than normal summer and I had them in about 50% shade; They survived the summer; I didn’t think that they would live here, I’m still not sure that they will; Similar to other aconitum and to A. carmichaelii; Plants (tubers) evaluated here are from earlier planting of purchased material.
Year 2
Similar to other aconitum, this is the fall aconitum; Very vigorous – must be dug and divided every 2-3 years, corms store poorly, replant quickly (Zone 6).
