Author Message   Susanq  My Favorite Photo My Garden Journal My Weather My Garden My Time Posted on Friday, June 24, 2005 - 10:40 pm:    Here is the part of my garden where I grow delphinium. In this area I have several varieties - King Arthur 'Pacific Giant' (the really tall one - probably 7 feet high!), Bellamosum, Blue Butterfly, Pennant, Blackmore & Langdon elatum. We're expecting strong storms tonight so they may all be on the ground tomorrow :( I've tried supporting them with whatever I had available. If they're still standing tomorrow I'll try to get some close-ups.

If not, I hope you get to salvage some for a bouquet. Good luck! Terryk - NY, Zone "6"   Gardenfiend  My Weather Posted on Saturday, June 25, 2005 - 01:58 am:    How beautiful!

You are so lucky! Every single delphinium I have planted has died! I love them so much, why won't they grow for me?????
