Description
Great for winter sowing. Sow seeds 1/8″ deep, indoors 8-10 weeks before last spring frost. Seedlings emerge in 21-28 days. Cold moist stratification – seed benefits from refrigeration for a couple of weeks in a moist growing medium or moist paper towel to aid germination, or winter sow.
Careful watering is essential in getting delphinium perennials off to a good start. Water thoroughly at least once a week to help new roots grow down deeply. I find morning sun with some dappled afternoon shade is the perfect spot.. Zones 3-7. A short-lived perennial. open pollinated.

“Met Kat at one of our Horticultural Society speaker nights. Her floral bouquets were breathtaking and her talk was full of interesting and useful information. Her lupin and delphinium seeds are growing beautifully.” LV

Excellent germination rate. At least half the delphiniums I started from seed spring 2021 are still thriving in my garden.
