| Delphinium elatum
'True Wild Form'
The mother of all modern hybrid Delphiniums! And in my opinion, the easiest & most rewarding Delph for the garden. First of all, you’ll never have to worry, “What happened to my Delphinium?” Super strong & sturdy, this originates from the mountains of Europe has not been weakened by man’s quest for bigger blooms, shorter stature, etc. In fact, each year it grows more substantial & wider in girth. Almost always in bloom from Spring thru Fall, it’s a cut-&-come again continual cut flower machine in properly composted soil. Gorgeous flowers in blue & purple shades with rear spurs, & some feature fab, furry “bee-butts” in the center. Highly attractive to boy-bees. Hee-hee! No staking needed & very mildew resistant, too! Cut back any time to 3” tall for renewed fresh growth.
