I do like them (I think). They look like interesting hairy insects. I wonder what the effect of a whole flowering plant is like.

I remember the black and white one, Mike, which I liked very much.

Mara you asked about the effect of the whole flower so here it is!
Apologies for the picture quality it is very heavily compressed.

I'm new here and this is my first ever post but I just had to say... Wow! I love those delphiniums! That colour would look super with dark red roses I'd imagine, actually being so close to black it should go with almost any colour. I wonder if we'll ever get them over here (New Zealand), we have alot of red tape and it's jolly hard to get new plants in.
