At the start of March, Phil bought these canterbury bells from Trader Joe's on Masonic.
They were in full bloom, wilted a bit in the kitchen while I waited for good weather to trudge out into the gardens, then sprang back to life as soon as I planted them near the base of the terraces. The plant is about one foot tall and twice as wide with six nearly identical flower clusters.
In the six pack to the right in the nursery, you can see several tiny canterbury bells I started from seed in mid February. The dry weather over the last year or so has been hard on the delphiniums, so I plan to distribute these throughout the front and back gardens where the delphiniums have died off.
