This exclusive assortment of dahlias features five varieties that perfectly complement each other. Your big, long-lasting bouquets will win rave reviews all season long.\u003cbr\u003e\nIn cold climates of North America, dahlias are known as tuberous-rooted tender perennials, grown from small brown biennial tubers planted in the spring.\u003cbr\u003e\nThese colorful spiky flowers generally bloom from midsummer to first frost, when many other plants are past their best.\u003cbr\u003e\nThough not well suited to extremely hot and humid climates, such as much of Texas and Florida, dahlias brighten up any sunny garden with a growing season that’s at least 120 days long. Dahlias thrive in the cool, moist climates of the Pacific Coast, where blooms may be an inch larger and deeper.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e•\tBig Blooms\u003cbr\u003e\n•\tPerfect for Bouquets\u003cbr\u003e\n•\tFlowers from Summer Through Fall\u003cbr\u003e\nPLANTING\u003cbr\u003e\nDon’t be in a hurry to plant; dahlias will struggle in cold soil. Ground temperature should reach 60°F. Wait until all danger of spring frost is past before planting. (We plant them a little after the tomato plants go in.)\u003cbr\u003e\nSelect a planting site with full sun. Dahlias grow more blooms with 6 to 8 hours of direct sunlight. They love the morning sunlight best. Choose a location with a bit of protection from the wind.\u003cbr\u003e\nDahlias thrive in rich, well-drained soil. PH level of your soil should be 6.5-7.0, slightly acidic.If you have a heavier soil, add in sand, peat moss or bagged steer manure to lighten and loosen the soil texture for better drainage.\u003cbr\u003e\nBedding dahlias can be planted 9 to 12 inches apart. The smaller flowering types, which are usually about three feet tall, should be spaced two feet apart. The taller, larger-flowered dahlias should be spaced three feet apart.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe planting hole should be slightly larger than the root ball of the plant and incorporate some compost or sphagnum peat moss into the soil. It also helps to mix a handful of bonemeal into the planting hole. Otherwise, do not fertilize at planting.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Caribbean garden seed","offers":[{"title":"1 Bag of 1","offer_id":45759662129338,"sku":"P35362S","price":5.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"1 Bag 3 Tuber","offer_id":45759662162106,"sku":"P35362S","price":12.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"2 Bags 6 Tuber","offer_id":45759662194874,"sku":"P35362S","price":19.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1022\/5071\/files\/dahlia-sunset-mix-tuber-giant-flowers-great-cut-flowers-4470601.jpg?v=1775974098","url":"https:\/\/caribbeangardenseed.com\/en-fr\/products\/dahlia-sunset-mix-tuber-giant-flowers-great-cut-flowers","provider":"Caribbean garden seed","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
