Compact yet stately, Delphinium ‘Pure White’ from the Magic Fountain series offers crisp white blooms with striking white central bees, all carried on sturdy, upright spikes. Bred for a shorter growth habit than the Pacific Giants, this variety is ideal for smaller gardens, windy sites, or growers seeking manageable height without sacrificing impact. Its cool-toned palette and tidy form bring elegance and calm to borders and bouquets alike.
Best for: Cottage gardens, shorter mixed borders, early summer arrangements, and floral displays needing cool, calming colour.
CAUTION - all parts of this plant are poisonous including the seeds so take care when handling.
Approx 30 seeds per packet.

| Growing Tips |
Plant in full sun to part shade, in deep, fertile, well-drained soil. Needs staking or support to hold tall flower spikes upright. Deadhead or cut back after flowering to encourage a second flush.
