Delphiniums germinate from 5 days to 5 weeks. The best soil temperature for germination is 60-68*F. The common failures in germinating delphinium’s seed are these. 1) Keeping the soil too wet. 2) Sowing the seed too deeply. Seeds should only be covered with approximately 1/8″ of soil. 3) Trying to germinate old seed. Delphinium seed loses its vitality after one year. 4) Freeze the seed in the freezer for two days prior to seeding.
