{"product_id":"col-9x6-del-colx1","title":"Delphinium (Larkspur) – Mixed Colour Tall Hardy Perennial (12 x 9cm Pots)","description":"\u003cp\u003eDelphiniums bring bold cottage-garden height to a sunny border, with towering spires of richly coloured flowers rising above deeply divided green foliage. This collection gives you 12 plants, each in its own 9cm pot, in a mix of complementary colours for a multi-toned display from early summer into early autumn.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDelphinium elatum hybrids are among the most iconic British border perennials. The flower spires are excellent for cutting and are loved by bees and other pollinating insects. They die back in winter and return reliably each spring.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe plants arrive well rooted and ready to plant into a border or a large container. Choose a sunny, sheltered spot with moist, fertile, free-draining soil, as tall spires can snap in strong wind. The exact shades vary, because the collection is curated to give a harmonious blend of tones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStake young plants early to support the tall flower spikes. Deadhead spent blooms to encourage a second flush in late summer, then cut back to ground level in autumn. Mulch the crowns over winter in exposed gardens, and protect young shoots from slugs and snails in spring.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCultural Information\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCommon Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Delphinium, Larkspur\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBotanical Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Delphinium elatum\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFully Grown Height and Spread:\u003c\/strong\u003e Approx. 90-200cm tall and 30-60cm wide (variety dependent)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrowth Habit:\u003c\/strong\u003e Upright, clump-forming with tall, erect flowering spires\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePerfect For:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cottage Gardens, Mixed Borders, Cut Flower Gardens, Wildlife Gardens\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFoliage:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mid-green, deeply palmate and divided leaves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlowering Time:\u003c\/strong\u003e Early to mid summer (June to July), with a possible second flush in late summer if cut back after first flowering\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlower Colour:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mixed, in complementary shades\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlanting Position:\u003c\/strong\u003e Full sun, sheltered from strong winds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSoil Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Moist, fertile, free-draining soil\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardiness:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fully hardy in Britain, though it needs free-draining soil and shelter from wind to come through winter well\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeasonal Interest:\u003c\/strong\u003e Summer into early autumn\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hardy herbaceous perennial (dies back in winter, re-emerges in spring)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"KOKE House","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54061543915786,"sku":"COL-9X6-DEL-COLX1","price":21.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0957\/2479\/8218\/files\/5_b7d854d6-c89d-4f9c-b930-1baa7fb20378.png?v=1793895408","url":"https:\/\/kokehouse.co.uk\/products\/col-9x6-del-colx1","provider":"KOKE House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
