Earlier in the season I offered seeds of Delphinium staphisagria .... it now seems possible/probable that these had been wrongly labelled at source and the plants are in fact Delphinium requienii

On my list of people who wanted them are
@Hostafan1
@Lyn
@fidgetbones
@LG
@gardeninglily1
If you still want some seeds (I have loads) please PM me your addresses (Hosta and gardeninglily, I have yours
I should point out that like all delphiniums the plant is toxic and that when I gathered the seeds I inadvertently touched my face and lips
and experienced half an hour of 'tingling' so please where gloves when handling the seeds. I certainly will in future.
I would also point out that I am still alive 24 hours later

I can collect them from him, I need to see him anyway as I’ve got plants ready for him.
judging from Plant World seeds description of the seeds the new ID seems likely.

and scroll down to the para on 'Availability', it does seem that there may have been some ID/labelling errors somewhere ... possibly at Chiltern Seeds?
