Reader Call: Delphineums

Reader Yvie is looking for advice on some delphiniums she was given. I am absolutely clueless about flower gardening, so I am opening up the floor.

In her letter she says:


I received a gift from a friend, these are delphiniums (the cherryblossom ones and they’re small compared to the normal delphinium).

I’m wondering how do I start cultivating these kinds of flowers? The weather here is like spring all the time. June is the start of our rainy season. So far it rained yesterday. I have only a few more months before these seeds expire. I have also researched about this but I don’t know how to start. Any idea?

Any readers with suggestions? Tried and true tips preferred, but links to good gardening sites would help too.

    Hi Annika, thanks for posting this. Yeah. I am so clueless, I’ve seen books in Amazon but I can’t afford it yet. Today, I’m going to start cultivating them, I did research something in the net, but these are for the Delphiniums, mine is another breed; Delphinium Magic shower cherry blossom. :D
    I still would appreciate it if there’s anyone here who could help me. Please if you do, visit my page and leave a comment there.
