Planting Instructions
Planting Season
- Plant tubers in late spring, once all danger of frost has passed, and the soil has warmed to about 60°F (15°C).
- Full sun is ideal for these dahlias, but they can tolerate partial shade in hotter climates.
Planting Details
- Bulb Depth: Plant tubers about 4–6 inches deep with the "eye" facing upward.
- Spacing: Space tubers 18–24 inches apart to give each plant enough room to grow and develop.
- Soil Requirements: Prefers well-drained, fertile, and slightly acidic soil with a pH of 6.0–7.0.
- Sunlight: Full sun for the best flowering and overall plant health.
Care Instructions
Watering
- Keep the soil evenly moist, but avoid waterlogging. Water deeply about once a week, especially in dry periods.
- Ensure the soil drains well to prevent the tubers from rotting.
Fertilization
- Apply a balanced fertilizer (e.g., 10-10-10) at planting time and again when plants are 6 inches tall.
- Reapply fertilizer every 4–6 weeks during the growing season to support healthy growth and prolific blooms.
Weeding and Mulching
- Weed regularly to prevent competition for nutrients and water.
- Use mulch to retain moisture, keep roots cool, and prevent weeds from growing.
Pest and Disease Control
- Pests: Dahlias are prone to aphids and slugs. Use organic pest control measures, such as insecticidal soap or diatomaceous earth, to keep pests in check.
- Diseases: To prevent fungal issues, ensure proper spacing and avoid overhead watering. Rotate crops each year and remove any diseased plants from the garden.
Harvesting
- For Blooms: Harvest when flowers are fully open but still firm. Use sharp scissors or garden shears to cut the stems, and place the flowers in water immediately.
- For Tubers: After the first frost, dig up the tubers, let them dry, and store them in a cool, dry, dark place until the next growing season.
Storage
Short-Term: For cut flowers, keep them in a vase with water immediately after harvesting to preserve their freshness. Long-Term: Tubers can be stored in a cool, dry place over the winter. Keep them in a paper bag or wooden box, away from direct sunlight.
