Description

Delphinium elatum 'Sky Sensation', commonly known as Larkspur, is a perennial admired for its soft pink, double blooms with striking black centers that create a beautiful contrast. This variety typically grows up to 4 feet tall, making it perfect for adding vertical interest to garden borders. Its elegant flower spikes bloom in early summer, around June and July, with the potential for a second bloom in early fall if properly maintained. The plant features green, hand-shaped foliage that serves as an attractive backdrop to its stunning flowers. 'Sky Sensation' thrives best in full sun and should be planted in humus-rich, well-drained soil. Regular watering is essential to keep the soil consistently moist, especially during dry spells, but overwatering should be avoided to prevent root issues. To encourage continuous blooms, remove spent flower spikes after the first flowering period. Staking may be needed to support the tall flower stems and protect them from strong winds. Like all delphiniums, 'Sky Sensation' should be monitored for common garden pests like aphids, slugs, and snails, and good air circulation can help prevent powdery mildew. Caution: All parts of the Delphinium plant are toxic if ingested, so handle with care and keep out of reach of pets and children.  With its eye-catching blooms and graceful presence, Delphinium elatum 'Sky Sensation' is an excellent choice for gardeners looking to add height and color to their landscapes.

Derived from the Greek word "delphis," meaning dolphin, delphinium are also commonly known as larkspur.
