Aconitum carmichaelii – Arendsii Monkshood
Distinctive azure blue flowers top the stately Arendsii Monkshood, Aconitum, from late summer into fall. The upper sepal of each flower resembles the hood worn by medieval monks or a large helmet, hence the common names of Monkshood and Helmet Flower. Leathery, dark green leaves are deeply divided. Deer resistant.
Caution: all parts of the plants are extremely poisonous to pets and people. Do not plant where children play or near vegetable gardens.
Plant in full sun to part shade. It prefers rich soil and consistent moisture.
