Aconitum carmichaelli ‘Pink Sensation’
Warning: Undefined array key "size" in /home/phoenix3/phoenixperennials.ca/wp-content/themes/phoenix/includes/loop-plant-index.php on line 47
Sturdy upright plants with spikes of pale-pink hooded flowers — an interesting colour departure for the monkshoods. The leaves are thick and leathery, dark green in colour with a glossy surface and broadly dissected into tri-lobed sections. A great vertical accent for sun to part shade. All parts of the plant are poisonous so don’t use it in salads.
