This year the delphiniums have been slow to start but they are magnificent now. Just a couple of photos to show you all. Thank you for looking.

I love delphiniums. Mine are a few days off flowering, but there are more flower heads than I’ve ever had.

Mine aren't in flower yet but have lots of buds so fingers crossed.

Wow, they are beautiful. I tend not to grow them as they usually end up as slugs dinner.

Magnificent delphiniums. The 1,000 words thread would like to see them I'm sure. When I was married I had delphinium heads wired into my wedding bouquet.

It must be a good year for delphiniums - mine are doing well too! I only grew them from seed last year but they have put up a good display.

Beautiful, lucky you.
We've never had much success with them.

Lovely, thank you purplepixie

I've never had success with them either, nor lupins nor hollyhock, I don't know why.
