The Wenatchee larkspur is a plant [[native]] to the mountains southwest of Wenatchee, Washington. Flowering season is in the summer, most notably in July; peak anthesis occurs during mid-summer. Fruits of the Wenatchee larkspur mature and begin dispersal by late September.<ref>[http://www1.dnr.wa.gov/nhp/refdesk/fguide/pdf/devi.pdf Delphinium viridescens : Wenatchee Larkspur (PDF)], dnr.wa.gov, (Accessed 2010).</ref> The Wenatchee larkspur is located primarily in wet meadows and stream sides in coniferous forest, and heavy clay soils.<ref>[[University of Washington]].

The Wenatchee larkspur is a plant [[native]] to the mountains southwest of Wenatchee, Washington. Common locations where the Wenatchee larkspur is found are in moist meadows, moist micro-sites in open coniferous forest, springs, seeps, and riparian areas. All known habitats of the Wenatchee larkspur are characterized by surface water or saturated upper soil into early summer, with poorly drained and silty to clayey-loam soil (WNHP 1999).<ref>WNHP. 1999.

The flowers are protandrous, meaning that the anthers on an individual flower mature before the stigmas do.<ref>[http://www1.dnr.wa.gov/nhp/refdesk/fguide/pdf/devi.pdf Delphinium viridescens : Wenatchee Larkspur (PDF)], dnr.wa.gov, (Accessed 2010).</ref><ref>[[University of Washington]].
