A classic garden perennial is improved upon with beautiful white blossoms that each have their own black eye in the center of each flower. Butterflies and hummingbirds flock to the large flowers. You will want to bring some stalks inside as they make excellent cut-flower bouquets. These hybrid Delphiniums are bred for strong stems to hold up the enormous flowers, excellent form, and when other Delphiniums succumb to heat or humidity these keep producing all while showing excellent cold hardiness.
