Water: Delphinium hybrid needs consistent soil moisture for healthy flowering. During dry spells, ensure thorough watering, keeping soil damp at least 2.5 cm (1 in) below the surface. However, prevent waterlogging to avoid root and crown rot.

Fertilize: Delphinium hybrid is a heavy feeder that requires regular fertilization every 2 to 3 weeks with a balanced fertilizer like 10-10-10 or 16-16-16. Avoid high nitrogen fertilizers, applying chemical fertilizers twice per growing season: once in spring and once in fall, after root development.

Pruning: Delphinium hybrid features tall flower spikes and colorful blooms, benefiting from early spring pruning. Trim spent stalks, remove dead stems for health, and improve air circulation to prevent fungal issues. This practice promotes new growth, vibrant displays, and enhances overall plant vitality.
