A wash of romantic pearl-pink petals makes this variety a florist favourite for soft, garden-style designs and pastel-toned palettes. It delivers a long season of graceful stems, each carrying delicate blooms that blend beautifully with roses, sweet peas, and airy filler flowers.

 

Grandiflorum delphiniums are short-lived, but they’ll overwinter if you give them sharp drainage and protection from winter wet. Plant in gritty soil, cut back lightly after flowering, and keep the crown on the dry side through the cold months.

 

When to Sow : Sep & Feb- May

 

HOW TO SOW DELPHINIUMS :

May need Cold stratification.

Spring Sowing - seeds should be placed in the fridge for two weeks prior to sowing, then surface sow onto moist compost, just covering with a little vermiculite as they need light to germinate. Place in a propagator with lid or into a poly bag to keep evenly moist. Ideal temp 15-18°C. Bottom heat will speed up germination.

Autumn Sowing - Sow as above and leave under glass to cold stratify naturally. In spring once the weather warms germination should occur.

 

Transplant seedlings when large enough to handle to individual pots.

    We make every effort to provide British seeds where possible, but in some cases our British Growers are unable to grow in sufficient quantities to meet our demand or the seeds are subject to Plant breeders' rights which means it is only possible for us to buy these seeds from certain non UK sources.
