This tall impressive delphinium certainly makes a statement - 'look at me I am beautiful'! It grows to a height of 1.8m (6ft) and displays spectacular ultramarine florets with deep dark eyes. It is certainly a very showy plant and compliments perfectly the paler blues or whites which may grow nearby.


  • Garden care:
    For best results, plant in an open spot with fertile, freely-draining soil and protect the young foliage against slug and snail damage.

    During the growing season, apply a seaweed or balanced liquid fertiliser every 2-3 weeks. While wearing gloves, stake the emerging flower spike with a stout bamboo cane and tie it in as it grows.

    Cutting back the faded flower stems to a flowering side shoot will help encourage a second flush of flowers.
    • Humans/Pets: Harmful if eaten
