Description
A variety of Honka dahlia with unusual bicoloured white flowers with red borders and streaks. Their petals are curled at the edges, radiating from a large golden yellow centre. This dahlia produces an abundance of stems each carrying beautiful flowers. A unique and vibrant variety that deserves a prominent spot in the garden. Its flowers are also wonderful in bouquets. H75cm Sp30cmSingle dahlias have daisy like flowers with one row of petals around a contrasting centre. These plants are typically 60-90 cm tall and may have regular or dark-coloured foliage. They are highly attractive to bees and butterflies and a great choice for containers or flower gardens.
Dahlias thrive in full sun to part shade and are ideal for pots and containers. They need around six hours of sun daily, with morning sun being ideal. They typically bloom 3-4 months after planting and can flower for months with regular deadheading. These plants are excellent for gardens, featuring long flowering periods, lush foliage, and a variety of colours, shapes, and sizes. Dahlia flowers are great for cutting and last well in vases. Cutting flowers in the morning and taking at least two leaves per stem encourages more blooms and bushy growth. Plant your dahlias in moist, humus-rich, well-drained soil, and mix in well-rotted manure before planting. Plant tubers about 10 cm deep and stake tall varieties during planting to avoid root disturbance. Ensure good air circulation between plants. Dahlia tubers don't need to be lifted if the soil is well-drained and doesn't freeze. However, they should be dug up and divided every few years to maintain optimal flowering.
