I have always wanted these and now I know why, I think they are beautiful and cheery.

I am into blue this year. These are bachelor buttons I planted last year from seeds.

I have planted hundreds of Queen Fabiola bulbs and have never, ever seen any of them bloom and very few of them even come up! What's the trick???

I love blue flowers, don't have hardly any of them though! I did have a blue Bachelor Buttons last year and a couple came up from self sown seeds. No blooms open yet, so maybe I'll get a blue again this year. Had an awesome lavender one too!

I bought the bulbs and planted them and they didn't do much last yeear but have been beautiful this year. I had planted them before and never could get tehm to grow either. I will look for seeds on the delpinium for you Rebecca. ANd I am getting us seeds fromthe blue Love In A Mist. I had my first bloom on hte ones from the seds you sent me today. It is white and very pretty. I love them they are so dainty and those seed pods are as cute as buttons..
Cathy, I like yellow with my blue. I like yellow with everything. I already have a pink and yellow bed with your Mon Amour glads. THey will be blooming soon.
THe holly hocks are starting to bloom. I have white, red and 2 shades of pink so far. Here is one

Oh goodie, Blue LIAM seeds! By tomorrow the "white" one will start to get a blush of lavender and will get deeper as the individual flower age. I saw a seed pod on mine in the front bed today, and it was huge!

Please do save or try to save some of the Delphinium seeds for me! And I guess I'll have to try GF again, but buy the bulbs from a reputable seller and NOT Wally World!
