Decorative Dahlia Mixed
D4046
A wonderful medley of decorative dahlia varieties, this collection contains top-sized tubers which will produce magnificent blooms in beautiful shades. Plant the tubers in late spring to create a colourful tapestry of long-lasting colour.
The flowers bloom from July until first frosts in late autumn. Keep picking the stems to add to floral arrangements, or deadhead spent flowers to encourage buds to form.
Within this carefully chosen Decorative Dahlia Mix are all reliable, named varieties of decorative large and waterlily dahlias. de Jager's top size, top quality dahlia 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.
