Delphinium, the aristocrat of fine English gardens, has been adored for centuries for its stately and showy flower spikes in white and shades of blue. Look through any English gardening book and you will see magnificent perennial borders, with delphiniums stealing the show.
How to grow: full sun and moist, yet well-drained soil that has been enriched with compost or composted manure. Good gardeners will deadhead to encourage additional flowers. Delphiniums are heavy feeders; read and follow fertilizer label directions.
How to use: Delphiniums can be used in beds, borders or container plantings.
Perfect as cut flowers, mix delphinium with other seasonal bloomers to create a delightful, informal arrangement for the indoor or outdoor dinner table.
Z is for zinnia - a zippy annual that flowers best in gardens, planters, or window boxes that provide abundant sunshine!
Want to smile? Potted zinnias add instant color (pinks, oranges, yellows, reds) and interest to any sunny space. Zinnias are easy to grow from seed, a fun project for kids of all ages. Buy seeds now and continue to sow a row for the next 3-4 weeks. Always plant extra; zinnias make great cut flowers for the home!
How to grow: keep potting soil moist, but not soggy. It's best to apply water to the soil and not the leaves of zinnias, if possible. Doing so keeps any fungal problems at bay.
Helpful tips: Deadhead spent blooms to keep plants tidy and reblooming. Use Blossom Booster according to package directions to keep zinnias in bloom mode.
