Hi all.
I've brought on Sarah Ravens GIANT Larkspur this year. Grown exactly as instructed the seeds germinated and matured into healthy young plants. However once in soil they have put on quite a pathetic show. They are in 2 of my neighbours gardens, mine and on my lottie.
All the same about 18" high and have flowered. Despite being a mix of colours on packet they are all purple which is annoying. They are not particularly bushy plants either.
Anyone any theories? I realise we've had some extreme weather but I've ways tried to being careful with hardening off, sheltering when required etc.
Do you ever find seeds really don't live up to their blurb on the packet.
