Description
Delphinium 'Magic Fountains Mix' delivers a captivating blend of dark blue, dusky pink, and pristine white blooms that transform any garden into a magical summer haven. These striking spires of larkspur add a vertical accent to borders and are resilient and compact, making staking unnecessary. Each plant boasts ruffled, semi-double blooms that attract bees and butterflies, offering both beauty and ecological benefits.
Delphinium 'Magic Fountains Mix' is a plentiful palette for diverse garden styles, from quaint cottage settings to sleek contemporary designs. The electric blue variety acts as a vibrant focal point, while the gentle pink offers a fairytale touch of romance. The white blooms, meanwhile, gleam like splashes of brilliance, perfect for cooling white themes or creating striking contrasts. Growing between 75cm and 90cm, they enhance the middle tier of borders or can be grouped in sunny spots for maximum impact.
These hardy perennials promise to return year after year, each time with robust and vivid flower spikes. Enjoy a long flowering season by deadheading spent blooms to encourage a second flush in late summer. Whether you plant them alongside cottage-garden favourites or soft ornamental grasses, Delphinium 'Magic Fountains Mix' provides the classic charm of traditional larkspur with modern versatility. Give your garden a touch of enchantment and pollinator-friendly allure with this stunning, easy-to-grow collection.

Useful information
-
Soak your Delphinium 'Magic Fountains Mix' roots in water for 3-6 hours prior to planting.
Plant your "Larkspur" bare roots into temporary pots with a multipurpose compost in spring and grow-on in a sheltered spot outdoors.
Choose a pot which comfortably fits the bare roots. Some have a noticeable crown which should be just below the soil surface with any top growth exposed.
Plant out into borders or permanent containers in late spring or early summer once in full growth. Choose a position in sun or shade depending on the variety.
