Summer Morning DelphiniumDelphinium grandiflorum 'Summer Morning'
Height: 25-30 cm
Width: 25-30 cm
Zone: 2
Exposure: Sun
Bloom time: Early Summer to Early Fall
Attracts pollinators and hummingbirds
Deer and rabbit resistant
Very different from the traditional tall spiky Delphiniums, this strain forms a low, bushy mound of lacy green leaves. Plants bear loose sprays of single, spurred soft-pink flowers throughout the summer. Ideal for containers, the rock garden and edging the sunny border. Remove faded flower heads regularly to encourage repeat blooming. Although not a long-lived perennial, this will often self sow where happy. Said to be tolerant of hot, humid summer climates. Also known to do remarkably well in areas with short, cool summers. An outstanding cut flower. CAUTION: Harmful if eaten.
