Delphinium ‘Strawberry Fair’

Description

Delphinium Strawberry Fair is a towering giant that breaks the traditional blue mould of its family by offering a highly unusual, vibrant mulberry-pink floral display. It is a fast-growing, heavy-feeding herbaceous perennial that dies completely back to the soil line while dormant, only to explode upward into a massive structural anchor during its growing season.

To keep it alive, you must place it in full sun, feed it generously with rich organic matter, and provide a highly reliable, steady supply of water directed strictly at the base to keep the foliage dry and disease-free. Aggressively defend the newly emerging shoots from slugs and snails in the spring, which will decimate the plant overnight if left unchecked.

Please Note: When purchasing plants, please consider that each live item is unique and may therefore differ from the images shown, which are for illustration purposes only. The plant will be supplied in a growers pot. Depending on season, some plants may be pruned back to encourage growth and deciduous plants may arrive without leaves.
