Delphinium elatum 'Mighty Atom'
Delphinium elatum 'Mighty Atom' is a dramatic larkspur with semi-double flowers in lavender blue.
Description:
Delphinium elatum 'Mighy Atom' is a highly floriferous larkspur with large, semi-double flowers in deep lavender blue on strong, compact flowering stalks. The centre of the flower displays a further group of petals with no eye showing, just volumes of soft petals. Provide full sun for best colour. Great vertical appeal in the cottage garden or in a modern setting. Fantastic in the vase. Do not allow soil to dry out in the summer. Removing spent flower spikes will result in another round of blooms on secondary spikes in late summer and fall. Pollinator attractor. Deer and rabbit resistant.
