Its compact height makes this plant suitable for the middle of a border or in smaller gardens where traditional tall delphiniums are less practical. Combined with lavender, salvia, roses, or ornamental grasses, it creates a harmonious and airy look.

The vertical flower spikes also provide structure and height differences in the planting.

Excellent as a cut flower

Besides its value as a garden plant, Magic Fountains Lavender with White Bee is also excellent as a cut flower. Its sturdy, straight stems and richly filled ears create a luxurious look in bouquets and arrangements.

Benefits as a cut flower:

• Long, strong stems

• Good vase life

The lavender color with a white center gives flower arrangements an elegant, fresh look. For optimal vase life, it's recommended to cut when the lower flowers are open and the upper buds are still closed.

Location and care

Care tips:

• Plant in humus-rich, fertile soil

• Avoid wet feet (good drainage is essential)
