Noted for its hardiness, Delphinium elatum 'Million Dollar Blue' (Candle Larkspur) is a mid-sized herbaceous perennial with large flower spikes, densely packed with semi-double to double, rich dark blue florets with dark bees. Blooming in early summer and then again in late summer or early fall, the showy spires rise with majesty from a mound of deeply dissected foliage. This vigorous hybrid belongs to the Million Dollar Series bred for improved vigor, heat tolerance, and shorter habit. Exceptional cut flower.
