Anemone Flowering Dahlia Speech

£8.50
(ex. VAT)

Qty:

Anemone Flowering Dahlia 'Speech' declares itself as a bright, spirited and full of character addition to the summer garden. With vivid red petals that flare outward, each one edged with a delicate whisper of white - as if the flower had been dipped in light.

Unlike fully double dahlias, powder puff dahlia ‘Speech’ holds its face openly, inviting bees while showing off every curve and quill of its anemone-style center. The result is a flower that is both dramatic and intricate, bold from a distance and mesmerizing up close.

Tall, sturdy stems reaching a height of 100cm and blooms measuring 12 cm across, they thrive in rich soil, and an application of well rotted manure. Flowering from mid summer to late autumn.

de Jager's Dahlia Anemone Flowering 'Speech' top size, top quaility tubers are supplied polythene bags, in which they may be safely kept until planting time, stored in a cool place. 

Care Guide

To grow Dahlias, select a sunny spot with well-drained soil, and dig a 30 cm deep hole. Plant the tuber 10 cm below the soil surface, spacing multiple tubers 45 cm apart, or 90 cm for taller varieties. Water consistently, maintaining moist but not saturated soil and protect new shoots from slug damage with eco-friendly methods. Feed plants during the blooming period with liquid plant food. Provide support for stems which will reach 60-90 cm tall depending on variety. Enjoy spectacular blooms from late summer until first frosts. Cut or deadhead the flowers regularly for a continually flourishing display. Once blooming has finished, cut back foliage before lifting, drying and storing the tubers in peat-free substitute, in a frost-free place until the following spring.
