- Delphinium Magic Fountains commonly known as Candle Larkspur is a compact growing hardy herbaceous perennial that produces sturdy spires of intense dark blue flowers with a dark eye in the unusual shape of a bee during the Summer months.
- This clump forming shrub has been bred for its shorter, more manageable growing habit compared to other Delphinium varieties. The dramatic flowers make excellent cut flowers, allowing you to enjoy them in your home and garden. During its flowering season of June and July, Delphinium Magic Fountains are highly attractive to butterflies, bees and other pollinating insects. It is an excellent counterpart to foxgloves, tall bearded iris and peony roses.

Watering Water thoroughly after planting and keep the soil evenly moist while the plant establishes. Once established, water during prolonged dry periods rather than little and often, allowing the soil to drain between waterings. Container-grown plants should be checked more frequently in warm or windy weather.
Best Growing Conditions Grow in sun or partial shade in fertile, well-drained loam. Choose a position with good airflow and enough space for the plant to reach its mature size. Mulch after planting and keep the root zone free from prolonged waterlogging, particularly through winter.
