Blue Lace Bee Delphinium creates a magnificent display of densely packed, tall flower spikes that add a vertical form to contrast more rounded plants. The electric-blue flowers melt into deep lavender, towering above a mounded, sturdy plant. This delphinium reaches 5-6 ft high with a spread of 2 ft. It is cold hardy in zones 3-7. Its early summer color attracts hummingbirds and pollinators, and is beautiful in cut-flower arrangements. The first flush is often followed by a rebloom later in the summer. 

Blue Lace Bee Delphiniums are bred to have excellent mildew resistance, color, form, and strong sturdy stems to support their towering height. This is a vigorous-growing perennial that rabbits and deer ignore. Tall, beautiful, deep-blue flower spikes seem to glow with electricity in the garden and are equally gorgeous in cut-flower arrangements. 

Blue Lace Bee Delphinium Care

Select a full or partial sun location with moist, well-draining soil amended with rich organic matter. Planting in compost-rich soil is a must for Blue Lace to get plenty of essential nutrients. Before planting outdoors, you may need to harden off the plant, which simply means moving your new plant to a sheltered outdoor place for about a week to acclimate it to its new environment. Remove spent flower spikes after the bloom is finished. Cut the plant back after the first hard frost in early winter. 

Regular deadheading will prompt repeat blooming throughout the summer to fall. You may need to stake the flowers if planted in an unprotected, windy area. Consider using a diluted liquid bloom-boosting fertilizer once in the spring and again in the summer. 

Blue Lace Bee Delphinium Spacing

Blue Lace is lovely as a majestic, eye-catching, back-layer border or in a mixed mass planting. Space plants roughly 24” apart. Blue Lace Bee Delphiniums have strong sturdy stems, but if planted in open areas exposed to high winds, consider staking the flower stems.

Plant Addicts Warranty - 1 Year (Extra Purchase Required)

We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die. Hungry animals, drought, poor soil conditions, over watering, diseases & pests are all good examples of what can cause plants to die. The Plant Addicts Warranty is a 1 year warranty protecting you from all of the unknowns and will replace your plant if something were to happen to it.

The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs. SImply let us know if your plant has died within 1 year of receiving it and we will get you a new one shipped out as soon as possible (depending on the time of the year and availability). We may ask for photos for documentation purposes, but we try to make the process as easy as possible.

Guarantee and Warranty

Plant Shipping

Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.

Winter to Early Spring

We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.

Summer

If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.

Fall into Winter

We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!

Winter

Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!

Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
