How to Plant and Care for Delphinium Seeds - Magic Fountains Light Blue White Bee
Starting Seeds
Start delphinium seeds indoors 8-10 weeks before the last frost date. Place the seeds in well-draining soil, covering them lightly. To promote germination, chill the seeds in the fridge for 2-3 weeks before planting to mimic winter conditions. After stratification, place them in a warm location (60-70°F or 15-21°C) for germination, which typically takes 14-21 days.
Transplanting Seedlings
Once the seedlings are large enough to handle and the danger of frost has passed, transplant them into the garden. Space the plants 12-18 inches apart to allow them to grow freely. Choose a sunny location with well-draining soil.
Watering
Water regularly, especially during dry periods, to keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Delphiniums are susceptible to root rot in overly soggy soil, so be sure to provide well-draining conditions. Water at the base of the plant to keep the foliage dry, which will help prevent fungal diseases.
Lighting
Plant Magic Fountains Light Blue White Bee delphiniums in full sun for the best growth and flowering. Ideally, they should receive at least 6 hours of sunlight per day, though they can tolerate partial shade, especially in hotter climates.
Soil Requirements
Delphiniums prefer slightly alkaline to neutral, well-drained soil. Enrich the soil with compost or organic matter to improve drainage, especially in heavier soils. A pH level between 6.0 and 7.5 is ideal for healthy growth.
Temperature
This variety thrives in moderate temperatures (60-70°F or 15-21°C). It’s best to plant it in the spring or early summer for the optimal growing conditions. Avoid planting in extreme heat, as delphiniums can struggle in hot, humid environments.
Fertilizing
Feed delphiniums with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in the spring when new growth appears. Avoid high-nitrogen fertilizers, which can promote excessive leaf growth at the expense of flowers. Regular feeding during the growing season will help the plants thrive and produce strong, abundant blooms.
Harvesting and Propagating Delphinium Magic Fountains Light Blue White Bee
Seed Saving
