Delphinium Delgenius® Glitzy

Packing stems with purple blooms edged with blue-violet and adorned with white “bee” centers, Delphinium Glitzy is certainly a glamorous addition to the world of Delphiniums. The compact, well-branched plants produce mounds of attractive green foliage and are very floriferous, adding dramatic colors and shapes to gardens and bouquets from early summer to fall. This member of the Delgenius® series represents a decade of work by a Dutch breeder to produce Delphiniums with superior hardiness and heat tolerance, a multi-branching habit, strong flower stems with abundant semi-double blossoms, and a tendency to rebloom. Plants attract butterflies and hummingbirds but are not appetizing to deer. 'Et Dlp 17-10' PP 32,993

The tall hybrid Delphiniums are the outstanding elements of every well-bred garden. However, dwarf forms and the sturdy and graceful species are equally charming in their own way. Delphiniums require full sun and rich soil amended with lime. In the South, they are best planted in the fall and treated as cool-season annuals.
