The Delphinium ‘Magic Fountain Cherry Blossom’ is a compact and floriferous perennial, recognized for its delicate cherry-pink flower spikes, enhanced by a small contrasting center. This variety from the Magic Fountain series offers the classic beauty of delphiniums in a lower format that is better suited for residential gardens.
Its spectacular early summer bloom brings height and elegance to sunny flowerbeds and cottage gardens. It develops an upright and well-structured habit, ideal for the center or back of small to medium-sized beds.
It prefers rich, cool, and well-drained soils, as well as full sun exposure. Staking can be useful in windy conditions. Delphinium is generally not attractive to deer, an interesting advantage for Quebec gardens.
