Sowing advice
Delphinium Blue Cloud thrives in full sun and prefers well-drained, slightly acidic soil with good fertility. Hardy in zones 3-7, it can tolerate a range of climates and temperatures, growing best in conditions ranging from 7°C to 24°C. Its blooms attract pollinators like bees and butterflies, contributing to a healthier garden ecosystem. To plant, start seeds indoors 8-10 weeks before the last frost or sow directly outdoors once the risk of frost has passed. Space plants about 20 cm apart to ensure healthy growth and airflow. Water regularly, especially during dry spells, and provide support for taller plants to prevent bending in strong winds.
