Plant of the week: Delphinium
This perennial stands above the rest – no pun intended! The long stems have large flowers that range in color from blue, purple, pink or white. I bought mine from Northwind Farm in Wisconsin; they were so beautiful and stately. Unfortunately, they didn’t come back. Reading through some gardening tips, I was pleased to read that Delphinium’s aren’t easy. You’ll need to prepare the soil before planting and cover them with 1-2 inches of organic matter in the spring.
Height = 4 to 6 feet; Blooms in early spring/summer
