Very Tall Michigan Late Bloomer Drk Blue ( photo / image / picture from GartenGrl's Garden ) Diseased? ( photo / image / picture from GartenGrl's Garden ) Need help to ID this late blooming Michigan perennial that is also diseased...what is the plant? and what is the disease? and how do I treat it? Thank you soooo much!! GartenGrl moderator's note: removed website link, see point 1.1 of usage rules
It rather looks like a Delphinium. As for the disease, I couldnt say, I know next to nothing about 'em.
Hmmmm....not delphinium...blooms in fall Thanks to you both...but I don't think it is delphinium as it is a fall blooming plant...but thank you...
GartenGrl, your plant reminds me of my late blooming Monkshood. I have a shot of it here Aconitum carmichaelii (Japanese Aconite, Monkshood)
Yes! Thank you...that is what it is...I have come to the same conclusion...do you know what might be wrong with it...if anything. Perhaps the buds just look a little weird until they bloom?
