Planting Instructions
Planting Season
- Plant Dahlia Rebecca's World in spring, once the danger of frost has passed and the soil temperature is consistently above 60°F (15°C).
- Choose a sunny location for optimal growth and flowering.
Planting Details
- Bulb Depth: Plant tubers 4–6 inches deep, ensuring the "eye" or sprouting point is facing upwards.
- Spacing: Space plants 12–18 inches apart for good air circulation and healthy growth.
- Soil Requirements: Prefers well-drained, fertile, slightly acidic soil with a pH of 6.0–7.0.
- Sunlight: Full sun is essential for maximum flowering. Aim for at least 6 hours of direct sunlight each day.
Care Instructions
Watering
- Water thoroughly to keep the soil moist but not waterlogged. Aim for about 1 inch of water per week, especially during dry spells. Be sure not to let the soil dry out completely.
Fertilization
- Apply a balanced fertilizer (such as 10-10-10) at planting time and again when plants are about 6 inches tall to encourage strong growth and vibrant blooms.
Weeding and Mulching
- Regularly remove weeds around the plants to avoid competition for water and nutrients.
- Mulch around the base of the plants to retain moisture, suppress weeds, and keep the soil cool.
Pest and Disease Control
- Pests: Watch for common pests like aphids, slugs, and spider mites. Use organic insecticidal soap or neem oil to manage these pests.
- Diseases: To prevent fungal diseases, avoid overhead watering and ensure good airflow between plants. Rotate crops annually to reduce the risk of soil-borne diseases.
Harvesting
- For Blooms: Harvest flowers when they are fully open and firm. Cut the stems at an angle and place them in water immediately to extend their life in floral arrangements.
- For Tubers: After the first frost, dig up the tubers and store them in a cool, dry location for winter storage. Be sure to remove excess soil and allow the tubers to dry out before storing.
Storage
Short-Term: Keep cut flowers in a vase with fresh water, and change the water every few days to prolong freshness.
Long-Term: Store tubers in a cool, dry place (around 40°F/4°C) for the winter, ensuring they are kept in a medium like peat moss or sawdust to prevent them from drying out.
