Dahlias are wonderfully colourful, vigorous perennial plants with lush leaves and prolific blooms for a generous season.
These tuberous plants are capable of filling the mid-to-late summer flower garden with taller shrub roses arrayed behind them, lasting until the first frosts.
Flower Bulbs are mostly very hardy and planted in Autumn, unless they are in growth.
Dahlia Tubers are too tender for planting outdoors in the UK in late Autumn or early Winter.
- Dahlia Tubers are planted when frost has passed and the soil warms up from April-May.
- Many people lift their Dahlias for storage over winter (or get them in the post from us!), pot them up indoors in early Spring, then plant out again in warm soil for a racing start.
- Dahlias are great in good size pots that can still be moved from their outdoor display positions.
For strong establishment and the best flowering, we recommend using Bulb Starter Rootgrow blend.
We sell single-plant tubers, which vary by Dahlia cultivar (type), that's why we hand grade them for you and discard undersize tubers.
Your mail order Dahlia tubers are delivered by next working day courier.
