Delphinium is a plant with bright, beautiful flowers that will add color to your garden. In the article we will talk about the features of care.

Where to plant a delphinium on the plot

The best place for this is a sunny place with protection from drafts. It is very important that this place is lit until noon, and then goes into the shade. It is also important to avoid possible flooding. If the site is in a lowland, you need to think about drainage, and also make a small artificial hill before planting.

Place and soil

Delphiniums prefer open sunny areas with well-drained, loose and nutritious soil. For successful development, it is enough to feed the plant a couple of times per season with complex fertilizer: in spring, before flowering, and in June / July at the end of flowering after cutting.

Watering

Delphinium loves moisture very much: it must be watered at least once a week, and during budding and flowering - up to two times. Plants propagate strictly at the end of August.
