Product Information
Whilst you may have a perception of dahlias as being old-fashioned, and what grandad grew when you were younger, they are enjoying a renaissance in the last few years, as they provide such stunning colour and value for money in the late Summer and Autumn.
So easy to grow, as they are supplied as tubers, packed full of energy to burst into growth in Spring. Plant in pots or in the garden, they will get away quickly from May, and produce a mass of bright colours which will pepper your garden like gemstones as Summer turns to Autumn.
Each pack provides 10 mixed colour and shape tubers, which will reach 60-90cm tall, and produce 20-30 flowers each. These can be cut for the house, or left to enjoy outdoors. Dead-heading will prolong flowering well into Autumn. They will survive milder Winters, or the tubers can be lifted and kept dry over-Winter, or left in pots if you choose them to grow. Old-fashioned Dahlias - a great addition to any Autumn garden.

Top Tips
Care Information
- Dahlias are tender tubers and do best when potted up initially in March or early April, into large pots (2 - 3L) filled with multi-purpose compost.
- Placed in a light, frost-free place and kept moist, they'll quickly form bushy plants by the time the frosts have ended, ready to be planted out into the garden.
- In the garden, dig a hole at least 30cm wide x 30cm deep for each one, spacing each tuber 75cm apart.
- If you don’t have anywhere to start them in pots, you can put the tubers straight into the ground when the frosts are nearly over.
- Once a fortnight, feed them with a liquid feed such as our Blooming Fast Superior plant feed. During dry periods, water at least once a week.
- Dahlias should be deadheaded regularly to encourage more blooms and you will need to stake the plants to prevent the flowers from breaking the stems.
