Aconitum napellus raises dense violet-blue flower spires above a narrow, upright clump of deeply divided dark green foliage in midsummer. Its height suits the middle or back of a moist border, while the hooded flowers also provide distinctive stems for cutting. Every part is toxic if eaten and skin contact should be avoided, so gloves are needed when handling the plant.
Plant in deep, humus-rich soil that stays consistently moist yet drains well. Partial shade is ideal, though full sun can work where mulch and regular moisture keep the roots cool. Cut back dead stems after flowering, and divide established clumps in autumn or late winter when propagation is needed.
