Basionym: Delphinium subglobosum Wiggins Contr. Dudley Herb. 1: 99. 1929
Treatment appears in FNA Volume 3.

Stems (19-) 30-50 (-78) cm. Leaves basal and cauline; ultimate lobes 7-12, lobes of basal leaves nearly as narrow as lobes of cauline. Inflorescences: pedicel 3-20 mm, 8-17 mm apart. Flowers: sepals dark blue, usually spreading, lateral sepals 9-13 × 5-7 mm, spurs 12-14 mm; lower petal blades 4-6 mm. Fruits 8-11 mm.


Phenology: Flowering late winter-mid spring.
Habitat: Dry chaparral and desert scrub
Elevation: 600-1300 m

Discussion

Delphinium parishii subsp. subglobosum occurs only on the eastern side of peninsular ranges.

Delphinium parishii subsp. subglobosum hybridizes with D. parryi subsp. parryi. Likely to be confused only with D. parryi, D. parishii subsp. subglobosum may be differentiated from that species by its lack of arched hairs on stems.
