Delphinium New Millennium ‘Purple Passion’ blooms with dense spikes of frilly, warm, rich, purple, single flowers with white centres. Its large, deeply incised leaves make this plant attractive even when it’s not in bloom. Selected in New Zealand, the New Millennium strains outperform all other tall types with strong stems and good longevity. Removing spent flower spikes will result in another round of blooms on secondary spikes in late summer and fall. Provide rich soils with good moisture.
