“A border without Delphiniums is like a casserole without brussel sprouts. The Delphiniums in the New Millenium Series are long-lived with sturdy strong-stemmed spikes packed with loads of richly colored flowers – often double or semi-double. Keep the soil moist and fertilize often and they will add towering magnificence to your garden.” – Ciscoe Morris
