Plant description
This beautiful pure white delphinium is one of the best neutral shades available with exceptionally tall flowering stems all but hidden by the large, semi-double, open florets. The petals grow with a slightly back-curling tendency, keeping their cream-centred purity throughout. Delphinium 'Jill Curley' would make an ideal vertical accent plant for a white garden or cut-flower scheme.

How to care for Delphinium Jill Curley:
For best results, plant in an open spot with fertile, freely-draining soil and protect the young foliage against slug and snail damage.
During the growing season, apply a seaweed or balanced liquid fertiliser every 2-3 weeks. While wearing gloves, stake the emerging flower spike with a stout bamboo cane and tie it in as it grows.
Cutting back the faded flower stems to a flowering side shoot will help encourage a second flush of flowers.

Please note:
This perennial dies back to below ground level each year in autumn, then fresh new growth appears again in spring.
