- Water regularly, especially during dry periods, but avoid soggy soil.
- Apply some fertiliser in spring and summer to boost growth and blooming.
- Consider using plant supports to prevent the stems from bending for larger flowers.
- Dahlias are frost-sensitive; after the first frost, dig up the tubers and store them in a crate or box for the winter.
- Plant dahlia tubers in April-May when there is no longer a risk of frost.
Dahlias originate from Mexico and are beloved worldwide. Their stunning cut flowers add colour to any sunny outdoor space. To extend their blooming period, regularly remove spent flowers. Remember that dahlias are not winter-hardy, so dig up the tubers in December and store them in a frost-free place for the next season. Here's a tip: add charm to your terrace by planting dahlias in pretty pots.
