Hello Paul, I wonder how long you've been growing delphs. Mine are getting ready to bloom in perhaps a week or so. I started them from seed ( Pacific series) and will be my first delphs in almost 40 years of gardening. I find them irresistible so would love any indication for how to pamper them! Thanks for uploading such a beauty. Arturo

I wish the Delphs were in my garden but they are in the garden of a friend. I've grown them before and they are wonderful. I've got lazy recently and water everything from over head. Delphs wouldn't like that, I hope yours do well and you can take some pictures to share.....

Thanks Paul, when they make it I promise pics. They are looking fine with healthy leaves. For the time being I keep the area relatively moist with plenty organic matter in the soil. My only watering system available is above head micro sprinklers (apart the watering can ) The climate is so dry that they haven't yet started any mildew on their leaves. Anyway I'm paying attention to your advice. Arturo
