Magic Fountains Lilac Pink/White Bee is a clump-forming larkspur with tall spikes of lilac-pink flowers and pale centers. The white “bee” marking gives each bloom a distinct center, while the upright stems bring summer color to borders and cutting gardens.
## Garden use
Use this selection in a sunny cottage-style border, or grow a few plants where their flowers can be cut. It works well in the middle of a mixed planting, with room for its vertical flower spikes to rise above lower perennials. The RHS lists the named selection for flower borders, patio containers, and cut flowers.
## Growing conditions
Plant in full sun in fertile, well-drained soil that holds some moisture. A sheltered position and staking or other support help protect tall stems from strong winds. Ball Seed lists moderate water needs, summer flowering, and USDA hardiness from 3a to 8b. The RHS describes lilac-pink blooms with white eyes appearing from June into September.
## Maintenance
Water during dry spells while the plant is actively growing, avoiding saturated soil. Deadhead spent spikes back to flowering side shoots to encourage further bloom, then cut the foliage to ground level at the end of the growing season.
