Delphinium - larkspur
Delphinium - larkspur
Delphinium: the cottage garden’s statement piece. With towering spires of vivid blue, purple, pink or white flowers, it’s bold, elegant, and absolutely beloved by bees. A true summer classic with serious vertical flair.
Plant Care
Position: full sun in fertile, well-drained soil – sheltered from strong winds
Hardiness: fully hardy deciduous perennial in the UK (down to -20°C); dies back in winter and re-emerges in spring
Hot Tips: stake tall stems early, and deadhead to encourage a second flush. Mulch annually and cut back after flowering. Young shoots are slug magnets – protect them in spring! Great for borders, cutting gardens, and dramatic floral displays.
