larkspur
Larkspur is a type of perennial flowering plant belonging to the Ranunculaceae or buttercup family. It is known for its tall, spiked clusters of brightly colored flowers in shades of blue, pink, purple, and white. The plant is native to the Northern Hemisphere and is often used for ornamental purposes in gardens and landscapes.
