Good Qualities

Nice color (3); Different from other larkspurs, florists liked the open airy appearance, interesting dried flower; New growth form, terminal floret opens first, then terminals on branches, a good filler in vase; ‘Chorus Violet’ was much different than any other larkspur I’ve grown, but sparse flowers, uncertain about postharvest, didn’t seem to hold up as good as other larkspurs, and buds didn’t open.

Problems

Many stems were not spray type; No problems, very similar to other larkspurs in cultural habits; Not sure when to harvest or how many florets should be open for best vase life; It is just too sparse, 1 flower on top not great; Low germination rate.

Comments

I failed to realize that a spray larkspur should be pinched, so I got tall stems with a single flower, still sounds like a great cut, I look forward to trying it again; Most likely we will grow this one next year; Postharvest time trials are needed.
