Nursery contributed plant descriptions

An outstanding annual replacement for the grossly more demanding garden Delphinium. Native to the Mediterranean it's most at home in sunny, well drained, alkaline soil where it produces handsome spires of densely crowded five petalled flowers in glorious shades of blue, purple, pink and white over feathery, soft green foliage. Self sows freely if you can resist cutting the flowers for the vase, for which they are eminently suited. Scratch seeds into bare soil where they are to grow in autumn or early winter. Each pack contains 50+ seeds at the bare minimum. Consolida ajacis
