Delgenius™ Neva Delphinium Care
For the best display of blooms, Delgenius™ Neva Delphinium needs 6+ hours of sunlight a day. However, it does prefer its roots to be kept cool if possible, and an annual mulch will help. A rich and well-drained soil is highly recommended along with regular irrigation to prevent the soil from drying out. You can apply a tomato feed as the blooms appear to encourage the best display.
Deadheading the faded flower spikes can help extend the flowering season. As the foliage dies back, you can cut it back to soil level in the fall or winter. When grown in a container, frequent watering and fertilizing will help maintain and support its growth.

The Delgenius™ Neva Delphinium can grow to an eventual 20 to 24 inches high and 16 to 20 inches wide. When planted in a group for maximum impact, you can space plants around 18 to 20 inches apart.
