Dahlia
Striking, semi-double, bright vermilion-red flowers from July to September and deeply divided, dark bronze-red leaves. This popular, peony-flowered dahlia requires a sunny site with fertile, humus-rich soil. Perfect for a planting scheme based on 'hot' colours, the tubers must be lifted and over-wintered in a frost-free place in all but the warmest areas.Position: full sunSoil: fertile, humus-rich soilRate of growth: average Flowering period: July to September Flower colour: bright vermilion-redOther features: excellent cut-flowersHardiness: half hardyGarden care: Provide a high-nitrogen liquid feed each week in June, then a high-potash fertiliser each week from July to September. Once the first frosts have blackened the foliage, carefully lift and clean the tubers and allow them to dry naturally indoors. Place the dry tubers in a shallow tray, just covered with slightly moist potting compost, sand or vermiculite. Store in a frost-free place, checking frequently over the winter months |
