How are they measured?

Dahlias are sold as "single tubers", which means the clump of connected tubers produced by one plant in one year. Tubers vary a lot in size and appearance: some are chubby and smooth, some are dinky and wrinkly, but as long as the tuber is firm, it's healthy.

The size of the tuber is not a reliable indication of the size of the Dahlia plant: some tall varieties with big flowers have small tubers, and some short varieties with small flowers have large tubers.

All our Dahlia tubers are First Class quality, grown in Holland, the world's leading Dahlia producer.

Description

‘Daisy Duke’ Dahlia Tubers

‘Daisy Duke’ dahlia is absolutely gorgeous but doesn’t overplay its hand. It has an upright habit and comes in at under a metre high, so it’s ideal for smaller gardens or large containers. You might even be able to get away with not staking it. Its flowers have a crisp, sculptural quality with peachy coral-pink petals that shade to mauve in the centre, with a bright green heart. The blooms are carried on dark stocky stems, with lush green foliage. The flowers measure about 10 centimetres across.

Dahlia ‘Daisy Duke’ can reach up to 90 centimetres in height and 50 centimetres in spread.

Dahlias are members of the Asteraceae family of plants. They are clump-forming deciduous tuberous perennials with pinnate leaves and showy flowers in summer and autumn. Dahlias are divided into 14 groups according to their flower shape; ‘Daisy Duke’ belongs to Group 5 and is classed as a Decorative Dahlia. Dahlias are toxic to cats and dogs.

Dahlias are easy to grow and generally free of pests and diseases. You might occasionally need to tackle pests such as slugs and earwigs and diseases such as powdery mildew but good gardening practices, such as appropriate weeding and feeding, together with our range of organic garden products will help keep your dahlias healthy.

‘Daisy Duke’ dahlia is a must-have for the cutting garden. Team with other warm coloured dahlias to create beautiful bouquets: try 'Brown Sugar' or ‘Burlesca’.
