Summary

Garden delphiniums are horticultural hybrids derived from some perennial species in the genus Delphinium. Breeding of garden delphiniums started from the 19th century in Western Europe. In the 20th century, the United States, Japan and New Zealand also contributed to delphinium breeding.

Cultivation

Nothing derived: no habitat climate for this species, and the archetype table has no figure for its genus or family.

Climate across the habitat

No habitat climate can be derived: Native range not verified: no WCVP distribution with native status for this name, so records cannot be told from cultivation and no habitat climate is derived.

Natural habitat

Native range as published by WCVP.
Openly licensed records inside the range, framed on where they fall.
NativeNot verified.Reported present (native status not stated): Norway· introduced: Austria, Hungary
Evidence usedNo verified native range for this name: WCVP has no entry with native status, and a checklist that only reports presence cannot tell a wild record from a garden one. The map shows 90 openly licensed records of 309 untested against any range; no map marker or climate is derived from them, and no sheet is built from them. 12 in-range records are placed to worse than 10 km and stay on the map but off the climate.
