All you need to know about monkshood flowers

While its watercolor-esque blooms are the first you’ll notice as soon as there's a cut monkshood in front of you, it is its tall spires with almost a hood-like shape that ultimately draws you in. But that’s just scratching the surface!

Also known as aconite or wolfsbane, wholesale monkshood flowers feature an average bloom length of 2 to 4 inches. Their average stem length, on the other hand, is 30 to 35 inches. The flowers, which are shipped with 5 stems per bunch, typically come in blue, yellow, white, and deep purple - all of which grow on spirals in an erect stem. At FiftyFlowers, however, monkshood is offered in purple and boasts little to no fragrance.

Monkshood, which is one of the reliable bloomers in its family, usually produces long-lasting flowers from mid to late summer. The shop’s purple variety is available from August through mid-November, with its availability based on market and weather conditions.

Unlike the daintiness you’ll find in daisies or the romantic affair in red roses or tulips, monkshood has a history that is slightly more sinister than charming. For instance, during the Dark Ages, the flower was thought to be a cure for lycanthropy. Meanwhile, the flower was believed to be one of the witches’ staples in their brews and ointments. In ancient times, monkshood was also said to be a symbol for caution and death.

Monkshood’s symbolism has ultimately evolved into something more promising, one that is very much deserved as it tackled a lot in the past. Today, the flower means bravery.
