Delphinium nuttallianum, commonly known as Nuttall’s larkspur, is a delicate perennial wildflower native to western North America, particularly abundant in meadows, grasslands, and open woodland areas. The plant typically grows 20–60 cm tall and emerges from a cluster of finely divided, fern-like leaves at its base. Its slender stems support airy racemes of small, showy flowers that range in color from deep blue to violet, often with a white or pale center, blooming from late spring through early summer. Each flower features the characteristic larkspur spur at the back, adapted for pollination by bees and other insects. D. nuttallianum thrives in well-drained soils under full sun to partial shade and is highly adaptable to both dry and moderately moist conditions. Its graceful foliage, charming blue flowers, and ability to naturalize in wildflower gardens make it a popular choice for native plantings and meadow restorations.
