Delphinium menziesii, also known as Puget Sound larkspur or Menzies' larkspur, is a perennial flowering plant in the Ranunculaceae family. It is native to British Columbia, Washington, and Oregon. This plant can reach a height of 75 cm (30 in) and is pollinated by hummingbirds. There are two accepted subspecies of Delphinium menziesii: subsp. menziesii, which has blue to purple sepals and is found throughout its entire range, and subsp. pyramidale, which has yellowish to white sepals and is only found in Washington.
