Does anyone know if delphiniums re-bloom in the same season. Mine have
bloomed once and the blossoms have fallen off and pods are starting to
form. Can I expect any new blooms?
Also if I have one blooming foxglove, will this multiply or does it
propagate by seeding itself.
Thanks, Doreen

Doreen,
if you cut them back, and I mean way back, to the bottom rosette of leaves,
they will send out new shoots and rebloom. sometimes you can get three
flushes of blooms this way. They do not really like the heat though!
