PLANT OF THE WEEK

Delphinium elatum

In the right hand corner of the photo, just off my porch, I have planted Pacific Giant ‘King Arthur’ Delphinium elatum. Between the taller clumps is planted D. grandiflorum ‘Blue Butterfly’. It is an electric blue color. The D. elatum is also a smaller delpinium and is a fill in for my row untll the larger delpiniums reach their ultlimate size. Pacific Giant’s can get five to six feet tall back East, but I will be content with four feet. We also grow and have available, D. belladonna ‘Bellamosum, a dark gentian blue, and a Pacific hybrid ‘Magic Fountains, dark blue with a white bee and a skyblue with a white bee. Magic fountains is a sturdy three foot high variety that can withstand some wind and does beautifully in a container.  Protect all varieties from wind. They like good garden soil. I plant mine in heavy clay and mix it half and half with peatmoss. I finish with a leaf compost but any compost will do. The tall Pacific’s need to be staked and I will be doing that to mine soon. I water twice a week in the heat of summer and keep the blooms picked off as they will rebloom again until fall. Dive in, they are worth it.
