Hook.
Delphinium cardinale is a species of larkspur known by the common names scarlet larkspur and cardinal larkspur. This wildflower is native to California and Baja California, where it grows on coastal, inland, and desert chaparral slopes, such as the Colorado Desert, and the Peninsular and Transverse Ranges.[2] The presence of diterpenoid alkaloids, probably including the highly toxic methyllycaconitine,[3] in above-ground parts of D. cardinale means that they are likely to be toxic if ingested.
