Delphinium elatum ‘Dasante Blue’


Dwarf Delphinium

USDA Zone: 3-9

Plant number: 1.175.480


Delphiniums are the stars of the early summer border. Plants form a low mound of deeply-cut green leaves, bearing tall spikes of satiny flowers. This compact selection has electric-blue petals with highlights of purple, held on strong stems that are great for cutting. Removing faded spikes at the base will encourage repeat blooming in fall. In hot, humid summer regions, plants do not usually last more than 2 to 3 years. Plants are often attacked by mildew in mid summer; simply cut back hard to encourage fresh foliage. Use a high phosphorous fertilizer each year, in early spring. CAUTION: Harmful if eaten.
