Delphinium 'Cameliard Group'
delphinium
Forming part of the Pacific Hybrid Series, this tall-stemmed delphinium produces its larger than average silvery blue flowers in tight formation around the upright stem. Wonderful in the early summer border, it also has a good resistance to powdery mildew.
How to care for Delphinium Cameliard Group:
For best results, plant in an open spot with fertile, freely-draining soil and protect the young foliage against slug and snail damage.
During the growing season, apply a seaweed or balanced liquid fertiliser every 2-3 weeks. While wearing gloves, stake the emerging flower spike with a stout bamboo cane and tie it in as it grows.
Cutting back the faded flower stems to a flowering side shoot will help encourage a second flush of flowers.
