Delphinium EVA White
This is not just any white delphinium but one that was chosen for professional delphinium cultivation after very long testing. The flowers are uniform and have strong stems with a length of about 90 cm. Delphinium EVA White starts fresh green when it shows its first flowers and becomes increasingly whiter as it continues to colour. You probably also know delphiniums by the name Larkspur.

Tips
When to sow Delphinium
Indoor sowing: From February to March, 8–10 weeks before the last frost.
Direct sowing outdoors: From April to May, once all danger of frost has passed.
Sowing method
Sowing depth: Sow seeds 0.5–1 cm deep in well-draining soil.
Spacing: Keep 30–40 cm between plants to allow for good air circulation and growth space.
Germination temperature: Between 15–20°C. Seeds typically germinate in 14–21 days.
Light: Delphinium needs light to germinate well, so choose a bright, warm spot.
Location and soil
Light: Full sun is ideal, but light partial shade is tolerated, especially on hot days.
Soil: Well-drained, nutrient-rich soil. Add compost or organic fertilizer for richer blooming.
Delphinium care
Watering: Keep soil evenly moist, especially during dry periods. Ensure roots don’t sit in wet soil to prevent root rot.
Thinning: Thin shoots once they reach about 7 cm high, leaving 2–3 strong shoots per plant to encourage larger, sturdier flower spikes.
Support: Hollow stems are prone to breaking in strong wind or rain. Use mesh or stakes to support the plants.
Pruning: Remove spent blooms to encourage a second flowering in late summer.
Regular feeding: Feed plants during the growing season with a potassium-rich fertilizer to boost blooming.
Harvesting and drying
Cut flowers: Harvest when 1/4 to 1/3 of the flowers on the stem are open. Place stems in water immediately for longer vase life.
Drying: Let the flowers fully open before drying. Hang stems upside down in a dry, airy place to preserve shape and color.
Combining: Combines beautifully with other perennials such as lupins, roses, and campanulas for a classic border.
How many seeds per square meter?
Each packet contains enough seeds for approximately 1 square meter of flowers. This varies by species, so consider the mature size of the plants. A helpful tip: don’t sow all at once. Stagger sowing to extend the blooming season and have a backup if the first sowing doesn’t perform well. A single seed can grow into a full plant, so give them enough space. Store your seeds in a cool, dry place; they remain viable for 2 to 3 years.
