Delphinium grand. ‘Banner Royal Blue’


Dwarf Delphinium

 USDA Zone: 2-9

Plant number: 1.176.230


Very different from the traditional, tall spiky Delphiniums, this strain forms a low, bushy mound of lacy green leaves. Plants bear loose sprays of single flowers throughout the summer in shades of deep royal blue. Ideal for containers, the rock garden and for edging the sunny border. Remove faded flower heads regularly to encourage more buds to form throughout the season. Although not a long-lived perennial, this will often self sow where happy. Said to be tolerant of hot, humid summer climates. Also known to do remarkably well in areas with short, cool summers. An outstanding cut flower. CAUTION: Harmful if eaten.
