Lovely, thank you purplepixie

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

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

Thank you ?

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.

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.

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

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

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

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.
