Soils,

Your flower looks like Sparaxis - if not, it may be one of the other SAfrican winter blubs that are widely grown in CA.

I am not sure if Delphinium will reseed......they are not as easy as larkspur. Larkspur will reseed themselves here and bloom nicely in spring. Delphinium won't.

If your garden is Class 1 soil the delphinium may reseed. You have a enough cool weather to make it possible. Wouldn't hurt to try. I suspect they won't become a pest - I have never heard anyone say there yard was overrun with delphinium in the 50 yrs I have been gardening.

I still have friends that live in Carmichael, Chico area and West Sac.
