Description
Aconitum 'Stainless Steel'
Height x Spread: 150cm x 60cm
A tall elegant plant with pale blue flowers in summer. It is excellent for the back of the border as a substitute for Delphiniums, as it is disliked by slugs.
It will tolerate part shade or sun as long as the soil is reasonable. Great for a poison garden due to the toxicity of the perennial. Ideal for a cottage garden or herbaceous border.
All parts of plant are harmful.
