Description
Delphinium ruysii 'Pink Sensation' brings a charming and refined touch to gardens, offering a beautiful alternative to the classic blues and purples commonly found in delphiniums. This elegant variety produces tall spires of soft, rosy-pink blooms that gradually fade to a paler blush at the edges, creating a subtle, graceful gradient. Each bloom is highlighted by a small white centre, adding a touch of sophistication to this already stunning plant. It's an ideal choice for borders, cottage gardens, or as an eye-catching addition to floral arrangements.
Reaching a height of approximately 80-100 cm, 'Pink Sensation' is slightly more compact than traditional delphinium varieties, making it perfect for mid-border plantings where its soft pink hues can complement bolder perennials. The mid-green, finely cut foliage forms a dense base, providing a lush, textural contrast to the tall flower spikes. This variety blooms from early to mid-summer, providing a steady display of colour and acting as an excellent nectar source for pollinators.
