Description Delphinium Paramo ‘Black Velvet’ is a larkspur with dense spikes of frilly, royal purple, semi-double flowers with near black centres. Its large, deeply incised leaves make this plant attractive even when it’s not in bloom. Plants bloom at 4-5 feet tall. Removing spent flower spikes will result in another round of blooms on secondary spikes in late summer and fall. Provide rich soils with good moisture. Fabulous for dramatic impact in the cottage and contemporary garden, architectural height in the mid to back of the sunny border, in containers and vase. Hummingbird and pollinator attractor. Deer resistant.
