Originating from Southern France, this unusual and vigorous delphinium produces loose clusters of orchid-like, pale lilac-grey flowers, each with a cluster of prominent purple stamens. These charming flowers appear from early summer on upright, branching stems and are extremely attractive to bees.
Mainly grown as an annual, as Delphinium requienii is typically short-lived, but it is a generous self-seeder, so in good conditions you will be ensured of a steady supply year after year.
