Plant Delphinium 'Volkerfrieden', Peace in full sun to light shade. Ensure you allow good air flow between plants. Delphiniums need a cool winter to grow at their best. Protect the growing stems from strong winds or provide staking, a bit of extra work, but like the old saying goes, beauty is pain! And these plants are definitely beautiful. The flowers are also good for picking.

Grow Delphiniums in a humus rich, moist, well drained soil. To flower at their best they need to be fertilised well. A well rotted manure and some mulch is recommended. Delphiniums do not like to sit in water and good soil drainage is vital. Water in well, then keep moist during active growth.
