Delphinium NEW MILLENNIUM™ ‘Dwarf Stars’


New Millennium Delphinium

USDA Zone: 3-9

Plant number: 1.176.980


Selected in New Zealand, the New Millennium Delphinium strains outperform all other tall types and offer some astonishingly rich shades. This variety is meant for the smaller garden. A true dwarf variety that produces large spires of mixed coloured blooms in shades of purple, blue pink and cream; some with contrasting bees. Will not require staking. Removing spent spikes right after flowering will encourage repeat blooming in fall. In hot, humid summer regions Delphinium plants do not usually last more than 2 to 3 years. Foliage may become infected with powdery mildew in mid summer; simply cut back hard to encourage fresh leaves or use a preventative fungicide beginning in mid spring. For best flowering use a high phosphorous fertilizer each year, in early spring. CAUTION: Harmful if eaten.
