Lovely delphinium with abundant fall rebloom. Would have posted a picture, but the residual effects of Hurricane Isabelle knocked the blooms over. The fall rebloom is much darker than the early spring bloom. Very unique, and have found this one to be less fussy here is z5 than all of the many other delphinium varities I have planted.
