Nursery contributed plant descriptions
Pompoms of blue, mauve to lavender petals, with pale lime accents, adorn the 2' stalks of this shorter Delphinium. Being shorter, it may not require staking, but would still provide a bevy of cut blossoms for arranging. Performs in June and early July, and perhaps longer in cool summer climates.
