Delphinium elatum ‘Highlander Rainbow Sensation’
Infuse your summer borders with a burst of colour and charm with Delphinium elatum Highlander Rainbow Sensation. Developed in Scotland, the Highlander series is praised for its vigour, disease resistance, and hardiness, producing robust plants with strong, self-supporting stems that reach up to 1 metre in height. These plants are more manageable and better suited for windy spots or container planting compared to the taller Excelsior hybrids. Their sturdy structure is complemented by delicate, multi-tonal flowers that offer a unique blend of soft pink, pale blue, and creamy green in each bloom. The double flowers are packed with frilly petals, creating a stunning visual effect. Regular deadheading will encourage new flower shoots, ensuring an ongoing display that provides ample blooms for cutting. The dried petals also make beautiful confetti. This distinctive variety exudes the romantic charm of a traditional cottage garden. Plant them at the back or middle of your border, where they will stand tall and produce a spectacular show from June to July, making your garden the envy of all who see it. Height: 100cm (39in), Spread: 45cm (18in). Plant height and spread vary seasonally, so the plant you receive may differ from the images shown.
