Description

Delphinium ruysii 'Pink Sensation' offers a charming alternative to the classic blues and purples often associated with delphiniums. This elegant variety produces graceful spires of soft, rosy-pink blooms that gently fade to a paler blush at the edges, creating a beautifully subtle gradient effect. Each flower is accentuated by a small white centre, adding a touch of refinement that makes this delphinium an outstanding choice for borders, cottage gardens, and floral arrangements.

Reaching a height of approximately 80-100 cm, 'Pink Sensation' is slightly more compact than traditional delphiniums, making it perfect for mid-border plantings where its gentle colouring can complement bolder perennials. The finely cut, mid-green foliage forms a dense, bushy base that provides a lush, textural contrast to the tall flower spikes. This variety blooms in early to mid-summer, creating a delightful display during the warmer months and offering an excellent source of nectar for pollinators.

A unique feature of Delphinium ruysii 'Pink Sensation' is its improved resistance to wind and rain compared to taller varieties, thanks to its sturdy stems and compact growth habit. This makes it a more reliable performer in gardens prone to summer breezes. Additionally, its pink tones are rare among delphiniums, making it a sought-after choice for gardeners looking to diversify their planting palette.

We supply premium-quality Delphinium × ruysii 'Pink Sensation' bare root plants to British gardeners. For the best results, plant in fertile, well-drained soil in a sunny or lightly shaded position. Regular watering and feeding will encourage healthy growth and abundant blooms, while deadheading spent flowers will extend the flowering season. Space 4-5 plants per square metre for a full and balanced display.

Bring a soft touch of pink elegance to your garden with Delphinium × ruysii 'Pink Sensation', a dependable and enchanting choice for gardeners who value both beauty and reliability.
