Delphinium 'Blue Buccaneers'

New Zealand Delphiniums

Common Name: Hybrid Bee Delhpinium

Dark electric blue flowers hold black bees on strong flower spires. Since it is from seed, some lighter blues may appear. Compared to 'Cobalt Dreams', 'Blue Buccaneers' is more compact, has black bees, and has a more intense blue color.

Delphinium are a classic garden perennial. These plants are excellent for adding height to small spaces. Their tall flower spikes are easily recognizable when they come into flower in summer. When in flower, the spikes of these plants become heavy and should be staked to avoid toppling over in rough weather, especially taller varieties. Newer hybrids are longer lived than some of the more traditional cultivars.
