Dwarf Larkspur Hyacinth Flowered Mixed Seeds - Delphinium ajacis
Delphinium ajacis Hyacinth Flowered Mix
Giant Larkspur, Rocket Larkspur, Doubtful knight's-spur
A first sowing in trays only yielded 3 weak young plants, the second attempt in open ground yielded nothing. I will try again next year in different conditions as I really like this specific research area.

Description
Dwarf Larskpur 'Hyacinth Flowered Mixed' is a superb selection that features sturdy, 50 cm tall spikes of semi-double flowers in an array of blue, red, pink and white shades. Annual delphiniums are hardy, easy-to-grow plants that are popular for cutting. This compact variety is ideal for summer bedding schemes and borders, gorgeous in front of low-growing perennials. Direct sow in spring in rich, cool soil, in a sunny, sheltered position.
Delphinium 'Hyacinth Flowered Mixed' is one of the many hybrids selected from D. ajacis, a popular annual native to the Mediterranean basin, tolerant of poor soil conditions and drought. Annual delphiniums are hardy, fast-growing plants that form a wide 35-40 cm clump. The leaves are palmately divided or lobed, soft green in colour, topped with 50 cm tall floral stems in summer. From June to September, double hyacinth-shaped blooms appear, gathered on sturdy, erect spires. The display a wide array of harmonious shades including sky blue, dark blue, red, deep pink, salmon pink, blush white and pure white and are a magnet to foraging insects.
The characteristic silhouette of Delphiniums always brings an elegant fullness, verticality and charm to perennial beds. For a romantic touch, combine them with old roses and Baby's Breath. The long-lasting blooms are particularly suitable for cutting. For dried flower arrangements, hang small bouquets upside down in a dry, well-ventilated place, away from direct sunlight.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands, etc.)
It will vary according to where you live:- In zones 9 to 10 (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), flowering will occur about 2 to 4 weeks earlier.
- In zones 6 to 7 (Germany, Poland, Slovenia, and lower mountainous regions), flowering will be delayed by 2 to 3 weeks.
- In zone 5 (Central Europe, Scandinavia), blooming will be delayed by 3 to 5 weeks.
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, United Kingdom, Ireland, Netherlands).
It will vary according to where you live:
- In Mediterranean zones (Marseille, Madrid, Milan, etc.), autumn and winter are the best planting periods.
- In continental zones (Strasbourg, Munich, Vienna, etc.), delay planting by 2 to 3 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 2 to 4 weeks in autumn.
- In mountainous regions (the Alps, Pyrenees, Carpathians, etc.), it is best to plant in late spring (May-June) or late summer (August-September).
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
