Magic Fountain White/Dark Bee Larkspur

Magic Fountains White/Dark Bee is a compact larkspur with white flowers marked by a dark brown, bee-shaped center. Its strong upright stems rise above divided green foliage, creating a crisp focal point in summer borders and a useful flower for cutting. ## Garden use Plant it in the middle of a flower border or in a cutting garden where the white spikes can stand out against darker foliage. The RHS describes the named selection as a clump-forming perennial with dense, semi-double flowers; Ball Seed lists the exact White/Dark Bee selection for garden display and cutting. ## Growing conditions Grow in full sun in fertile, well-drained soil. Chalk, clay, loam, and sandy soils are listed by the RHS for this selection. Ball Seed gives moderate water requirements, identifies the plant as heat tolerant, and lists a USDA hardiness range of 3a–8b. Shelter the flower stems from strong winds and support them if needed. ## Maintenance Water when the soil begins to dry during active growth, while avoiding waterlogged conditions. Deadhead spent flower spikes back to smaller flowering side shoots, then cut all growth down to ground level in autumn.
