Light Blue Delphinium Flower

The Good: The light blue color is breathtaking, and we love designing with tall, slender stems! Blue is not a common color for fresh flowers, so it’s a must-have for blue palettes. The small florets can be used in bouts, flower crowns, and corsages.

The Bad: Delphinium can be delicate and prone to shedding…a lot. Due to their delicate nature, they have a shorter vase life than some flowers. They don’t enjoy extreme heat, but prefer cooler temperatures.

• Give the stems a fresh cut, and hydrate in cool water.
• Store in a bucket by itself, and change the water daily.

Delphiniums are versatile, and they can be used as a filler or accent flower. Based on our design suggestions, here are our recommended quantities:

• Bridal Bouquet: 6-8 stems
• Maids: 3-5 stems
• Bouts: 1 floret
• Corsages: 1-2 florets
• Centerpieces: 3-5 stems
• Large Arrangements: 1-2 bunches

Flower Moxie reserves the right to make changes or substitutions.  All substitutions are only done as a last resort, and only when the reasons for doing so are reasonable and genuine.  For example, if a flower becomes unavailable (off-crop),  incorrect color, or not in good condition to grace a wedding function we will substitute a flower that has a similar color and price-point.
