Gardening Trends for 2025
Welcome to our new site
Delphinium ‘Aurora™ Deep Purple’ is a striking, upright perennial prized for its tall, elegant spires of densely packed, semi-double royal purple flowers, each accented with a crisp white “bee” at the centre. Blooming in late spring to early summer, these impressive flower spikes rise above a clump of deeply lobed, dark green foliage, creating a dramatic vertical statement in borders and cottage-style plantings. Part of the Aurora™ series, this F1 hybrid is specially bred for strong, uniform stems and excellent performance as a cut flower. Growing 3–4 feet tall, it benefits from staking in exposed areas and may reward with a second flush of blooms if cut back after flowering. With its bold colour, refined form, and classic garden appeal, ‘Aurora™ Deep Purple’ brings timeless elegance and height to sunny garden spaces.

🌱 Perennial Care Guide (Gatineau/Ottawa)
All perennials at Nesbitt’s are suitable for hardiness zones 1 through 5. This means they are selected to withstand a wide range of colder climates and seasonal temperature variations in our region.
Perennials are expected to return year after year when planted in the right conditions. To support strong root development and long-term performance, use well-draining soil and enrich with compost or peat moss. Choosing the right plant for your garden’s light and soil will help ensure reliable growth and consistent blooms each season.
