Description

The purple Topmix Dahlia is a rewarding summer bloomer that will give you months of pleasure since it blooms all summer from July until the first frost. This purple Topmix Dahlia grows to about 50 cm. high and is ideal for planting in pots on a terrace or balcony. Dahlia tubers should be planted in the spring. Dahlias are sensitive to frost, so be careful with late night frosts. Dig a spacious planting hole, loosen the soil and fill the planting hole with good potting soil. Carefully place the tubers in the planting hole and cover with 3-5 cm of soil. The planting distance of the tubers is 40 cm. Water the tubers immediately after planting. Dahlias bloom most profusely in full sun. Store the tubers in a frost-free place after flowering and you will enjoy them for years. Purple Dahlia Topmix combines well with low perennials and other low Dahlia varieties. Dahlia Topmix is an excellent cut flower and has a long vase life. The best time to cut Dahlias is early in the day and immediately place the stems in lukewarm water with cut flower food.
